“Enjoy the little things, for one day you will look back and realize they were the big things.” ~ Robert Brault These days, people try to sell us everything from miracles in a tube to hope in a jar. So when the term happiness jar started rolling around social media circles, you might have thought “Who’s selling something now?”
The answer: No one. This is the real deal, and that’s because it can’t be sold. This treasure can only be handcrafted by you, FOR YOU. It’s Happiness In A Jar, which was first introduced by Elizabeth Gilbert. Basically, here’s the idea: Every day you add a note to your jar that describes a moment that made you happy, preferably with pretty scrap paper. The more you fill it up with happy and thankful moments, the more beautiful it becomes. Isn’t that just the perfect picture of what life is like? WHAT SHOULD I ADD TO MY HAPPINESS JAR? This is YOUR jar, so you make the rules. There are lots of things you could include depending on what seems most fitting that day:
Whatever it is, write it down, put a date on it, and toss it on the jar. WHEN DO I OPEN MY HAPPINESS JAR? Some people like to open it on New Years, while others prefer to pop it open whenever life gets tough. Create a plan that works for you!!
