Life's Real Joy

The mundane normal every-day things that most people find quite boring on social media, are the most important things to me, and give me the most joy in my life. My life isn't about me strolling on the beach in Cancun. That's something that very rarely happens.

• My life is how I greet my kids every day they come home from school.

• My life is how we all treat each other over the dinner table.

• My life is when I wake up early enough to watch the sun rise, or meditate.

• My life is when I feel God in my day.

• My life is how I talk to my family throughout the day.

• My life is slow dancing with my husband in front of my kids.

• My life is when I call my mom to tell her about my kid's life moments.

• My life is when I laugh with the people I love.

• My life is smiling and enjoying the journey even through the struggles.

Those are the little moments that take up many hours every day of our lives. When we get the simple mundane things right in our life, it ends up actually being the majority of our life wrapped up into what real happiness is. Those little moments make up more than 85% of our life. Those little things are how you find life's true joy. But they're not little things. They're the BIG IMPORTANT things.
