You Deserve To Be Happy
Young Or Old Or Inbetween
“The purpose of our lives is to be happy”.
We always want
to see our children happy and giggling
as they play,
learning new skills,
every single day.
Why not us adults?
We deserve just as much happiness.
As life moves on and we get older,
with more responsibilities,
we tend to ‘forget’ this.
The dolphin
has a permanent Smile —
why not us?
Dogs wag their tails when they are happy,
especially when we give them attention —
why not give ourselves some attention?
I love cats (tame and wild)
and when I see one,
I just have to stroke it (only the tame ones mind you),
smiling and chatting away —
it makes me feel Happy.
What makes you feel Happy?
Do something
that makes you feel Happy,
every single day,
because
you Deserve to be Happy.
LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

The Ritual of Winter Challenge Winners
Welcome to the Winners Announcement for The Ritual of Winter challenge. This prompt focused on winter rituals and the meaning that settles into them over time. The top pieces stay grounded in ordinary acts and repeated routines, letting winter shape the work through pace, attention, and restraint.
