Another Dose of Words

Words hold such power, don't you think? It impresses me how by just reading something we can feel so inspired. Here's some words that have been inspiring me recently:

Why a Blog?

I recently read Gretchen Rubin's "The Happiness Project" and have been itching to start my own project ever since. I decided to take some time planning it out (I'm a planner/list-maker) and thought starting it as a New Year's resolution would be a good idea. 

I chose to blog about my happiness project for two reasons:

• I think blogging will add a sense of commitment to my project. If I write out what I should be doing here I'll be more likely to follow through. That's the theory anyway, we'll see how it actually works out.

• I love reading blogs! I've been reading various blogs for a couple of years. I've been wanting to start my own for quite some time and, now that I have something specific to blog about, the time feels right!

I don't know if I would classify the blog as any particular genre, but if I had to choose I guess lifestyle would fit best. I'm hoping to share my journey on this happiness project along with my day to day experiences. Bon Voyage!
