Be on the lookout for smiles, giggles & laughs.  These can be the regular kind (which are all so wonderfully unique) or the really secret kind -- flowers giggling in the breeze, cats smiling at how cool they are.

We are hard wired to respond to smiles with a smile on our face  -- beware -- the more you catch sight of all the smiles, laughs, & giggles around you, the more you will probably join in.

Hello Spritely One,

This week we will keep it simple, by simply saying, "Thank you." Just thinking about how beautiful and powerfully transformative this is, and how cool it's all going to be, makes my wings start sparkling a rainbow of colors.

Simply saying, "Thank You," several times a day can transform your life.  You don't even need to be thinking of anything you're grateful for when you say it.  Just say, "Thank You," and see what comes to mind.  My friend Spruce was doing this while driving her car this morning and found herself being grateful for the colors of the sky, for the people in the car ahead of her, for the interesting shapes of the buildings she was passing, for the wonderful salad she had just picked up from Whole Foods.

You don't even need to know who or what you're thanking, simply say, "Thank you," and see what happens.

Happiness Sprite Tip

Have, "Thank you," be your mantra, your spiritual practice this week.  Say it just for the sheer pleasure of saying it.  Say it when you experience something or someone you are grateful for.  Say it to yourself and for yourself.  Say, "Thank you," and transform your world.

Thank you, for your Spritely presence in my life.

Have a lovely week, Dear One, filled with appreciation and gratitude.

THS (The Happiness Sprite)
