“They” say that if you display in your home objects that you
love and that have attached to them sweet memories it makes us happier. Isn’t that just a simple and a gorgeous
way to live.

I notice even that act of displaying them makes me
happy. Here’s what my desk looked
like before and believe me, I even cheated some because it was worse then this.

Also if you wake up in a bedroom that is visually unimpeded
your day will be better. Our
brains like the freedom that our eyes see. I’m pretty good about the bedroom
being free of clutter. I even make my bed, which is another simple thing to do
that makes us happy. The Italians
believe in opening the bed and widows up for a good half hour to air it all
out.

My problem is I dump my clothes on one big chair. I can’t seem to stop doing this. I even have a dear friend in California
who is a psychiatrist and he so mean and told me that I would never change that
fault. So far he has been right
(10 years and counting) I can only seem to correct that problem for a few days
at a time.

Here’s a great quote.
“People change and forget to tell each other.”

I still hope I will change and then when I do, I’m
intentionally not going to tell my friend. I will just secretly know he was wrong. I’m so glad he never said anything mean
about my maturity level, or I might have to conger up a plan about that!
This leads me to one last point about happiness. Having a plan makes us happy. I wonder if this works if it is a
stupid plan?
Cheers,

Isn't that what the chair in the bedroom is for? I do the same thing.
