Living Edge magazine June 2018 – FREE to read online now
Oh what a glorious month was May! A royal wedding fabulous enough to keep us happy for a decade or two (Prince George, you have a lot to live up to!) sunshine and blue skies for day after day and blossom, blossom everywhere.
June has much to do to make us so happy, but then, happiness is very much a self-inflicted state of mind, don’t you think? I choose happy over grumpy any day – in myself and in those around me! Surround yourself with happy people, do lots of what gives you pleasure and seek fun wherever you can find it. As Abraham Lincoln said: “Folks are usually about as happy as they make their minds up to be.”
I’ve had the pleasure to chat to some very happy people this month, from TV and stage star Rita Simon to Northern Artist Ben Kelly to fashion shop owner Ann Lees. They had one key trait in common; they do what they do because they love it. Nothing could be simpler.
Wishing you a wonderfully happy month!
