This is a curated version of a\u00a0list that originally appeared on \u201cA Thousand Shades of Gray<\/a>.\u201d\u00a0For more of your daily dose of happy, please visit the complete list\u00a0here<\/a>.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

\u2022\u2022\u2022<\/p>\n

One day you\u2019re a dog. The next day, you\u2019re in space.<\/b><\/a> by Andrea Scher. Even though this piece is about a very personal experience, it’s completely universal at the same time. And, the fact that she published it on September 11th gave it a whole other layer of meaning. It made me think of all the times in my life this has happened\u2014”Sometimes life changes like that\u2014one day you\u2019re a dog, the next day you\u2019re in space.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Good Question: How can I stay creative when I have to sit and type all day long?<\/b><\/a> and <\/span>No regrets<\/b><\/a>, wisdom from the wicked smart Alexandra Franzen. What I love so much about her perspective is she is able to be both gentle and fierce at the same time.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Digital Breakup<\/b><\/a> from The School of Enough, (shared on <\/span>Be More With Less<\/span><\/a>). This makes a really compelling argument for challenging yourself to make a change to your digital habits. I want to try it, but I confess it also makes me a bit shaky just thinking about it.<\/span><\/p>\n

the big quiet<\/b><\/a> from Sas Petherick is also about giving yourself a digital break, and includes a totally free e-book, <\/span>Rekindle Your Wonder: 99 ways to look up, \u201c<\/span><\/i>packed with ideas for things you can do instead of the endless freaking scrolling.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Recipe: Easy Sweet Potato Veggie Burgers! With Avocado.<\/b><\/a> Looks so yum, although if you put sweet potato and avocado in just about anything, I’m going to want to eat it.<\/span><\/p>\n

10Q<\/b><\/a>.<\/b> 10 Days. 10 Questions. “Answer one question per day in your own secret online 10Q space…When you’re finished, hit the magic button and your answers get sent to the secure online 10Q vault for safekeeping. One year later, the vault will open and your answers will land back in your email inbox for private reflection.” This year\u2019s 10 actually started yesterday, but you can still join in. I’ve done it for the past few years, and it’s really fun. I always learn something about myself answering the questions, and am surprised and inspired when I read my responses from the year before.<\/span><\/p>\n

How to Finally Clean out Your Closet for Good<\/b><\/a>, a really great strategy from Be More With Less. “When I finally cleaned out my closet for good, peace replaced guilt, joy replaced frustration, and love replaced fear.”<\/span><\/p>\n

How Not to Do It All<\/b><\/a> from Zen Habits. I should probably just commit to starting each and every day by reading this. My name is Jill, and I\u2019m a do-aholic.<\/span><\/p>\n

Meditation: Beyond the Practice with Susan Piver<\/b><\/a> on The Good Life Project Radio, two of my favorite people talking to each other about one of my favorite topics.<\/span><\/p>\n

Wisdom from Carl Sagan:\u00a0<\/b>“For small creatures such as we the vastness is bearable only through love.”<\/span><\/p>\n

The Tiny Book Show<\/b><\/a>.<\/b> If you are looking for an easy, creative project, this one is super fun.<\/span><\/p>\n
