WAKING UP HAPPY

Wouldn’t we all like to wake up happy every day. I am again inspired to write this post by my dog Lily, whom although she does like to sleep in some mornings, always gets out of bed happy and eager to start a new day. When she does finally get up, she comes racing into the living room, darts to where I am sitting on the couch πŸ›‹ and reigns πŸ’‹ kisses on my face. This is normally straight after I have had my shower, and Lily loves licking my face, when it is cleansed and moisturised, and I have applied flavoured lip πŸ’‹ balm. Normally straight after this, Lily either has her breakfast, or I take her for her daily walk.

Lily’s enthusiasm is like that of a small child. Each day is a potential new adventure and I love my daily walk with her. It is the best time of day, when the day is young and fresh and full of possibilities.

It is the simple things in her life that brings Lily the most πŸ™ pleasure. Dogs truly are naturally grateful and optimistic. They love us so unconditionally and love being in our company. No wonder they are humankind’s best friend. Pethaps when we are feeling jaded and pessimistic about life, we need to find the optimistic enthusiasm that our dogs have and try to wake up happy every morning looking forward to the new adventures and possibilities that each day brings. Each day is an opportunity to start afresh and leave the negative past behind us. Be like Lily and strive to wake up happy.

  1. After reading this it has inspired me to look at life thru a more positive lense. Having had many pets over the years I’ve forgotten how much joy and positive change they can bring to one’s life.You and Lily are very blessed.Well done.Kaye.

  2. You’re so right. It would be lovely to wake up every morning and be able to happily jump around as our dogs do. As long as they are well treated they are always happy I wouldn’t be without mine. Very well written
