Find What Makes You Happy

This old gal…

Cried five times in three hours…not about traveling…or leaving the cat…not because she’s sad…or lonely…or upset…but because…

She got the feels…the this-book-hits-me-where-it-hurts feels…read for hours…couldn’t put it down…the writing dynamic…unique…the characters so real…

Their heartache bringing tears…not blubbery tears…but I-want-you-to-be-happy tears…those kids from Beartown…those people from Beartown…

Finished the second book of the series then started the third…haven’t read a series like this in forever…not since Twilight or Hunger Games…and it felt good…so very good…

Chatted with that daughter of mine later that night…what did you do today?..she asked…

Had to stop and ponder…what DID I do today?..no shopping…no cooking…no chores…did I just sit around and waste the day today?..

But au contraire…this would not be so…

Well today…she heard…I got lost…for hours…in a place called Beartown…and it was wonderful…

And so it is…in life…get lost…escape…find what makes you happy…and do it…
​
And that husband of mine…agrees…
