Feeling Happy
10 Apr 2010 Leave a Comment
You know, I feel happy and content! Wow! Here is an exercise I did that really did help:
I am in a support group, and it was suggested to draw or find pictures that make us feel happy. The idea is to dwell on those things instead of the negative stuff that many of us gravitate toward. These drawings or pictures could be things, memories, activities, people, goals, anything that make you feel happy.
Some things I drew were:
Jay’s arms–They are the best place to be.
Peanutbutter
My Wedding
My Baptism– The day I publically proclaimed Jesus.
My brothers– I used to blackmail them into playing “Baby and Mommy” with me! Fun times!
Pete– My 3rd grade crush
Ocean
Roaster Coasters
Disney’s World– I want to go there!
I had at least 50 drawings!
Try it! Overwhelm yourself with the good in your life! And by the way, there is no where in the Bible that says we can’t feel good–just as long we don’t get big heads!
