I came across this recently, and it has really stuck with me. I thought I would share…
What is well being?
- Small pleasures in life: not related to the big moments in life, but rather part of your everyday life
- A precious, treasured moment
- A sudden awareness, you suddenly realise the beauty of the moment
- A feeling that life is worth living
- Something that overcomes you, it overtakes you
- You cannot plan it, it just happens
- A very personal experience
*Stay tuned for some of my own actual writing tomorrow.*

Hmmm… I didn’t see an ample supply chocolate on that list. I was sure that would be at least one definition of well being. 😉
How true though. The small soft moments of awareness and gratitude really make a tremendous difference in our lives.
I like those definitions. The beauty of the moment has struck me several times recently.
Definately important parts of life. I think I find more joy in the time I am planning, as in, getting ready for the important events that seem to flounder, but the things that happen along the way seem to make up for. I love being able to roll with life, that is something I have learned recently. With all the stuff that has been going on, I have learned that nothing (except dr’s visits) HAVE to be done today. I feel much more laid back. Things still get done, just not always at a break neck speed.
Ah yes, all the things I am sorely lacking, LOL!
“A sudden awareness.”
That’s my favorite part. 🙂
I really like this … I know EXACTLY what they are talking about. Whenever I have moments like that, I try to appreciate them and remember.
