Supernatural & What Makes Happiness
30 Day Blogging Challenge

PROMPT May 16th
Do you believe in ghosts or other supernatural entities? Have you ever experienced something you could not explain?


I am open to the possibility. After my father died by mother got a 'call' in her dream telling her it was 7 am and it was time to get up. She had forgotten to set her alarm that day and the dream woke her only to find out that it was in fact 7 am.

My friend's brother, Clay, also got a phone call while he was babysitting my cousin. The man on the line asked if his daughter was okay. When Clay said yes, the man hung up. At the time, my aunt was going through colon cancer treatments and her father, my grandfather, had died several months before this. Grandpa was not a man of many words on the phone and he too had died of cancer.

Discuss this quote in your blog. β€œIt is not how much we have, but how much we enjoy, that makes happiness.” – Charles Spurgeon

I agree with this. Some people can have so many things and be overwhelmed by them or take them for granted. While other people may not have much, but appreciate all they do have. This quote brings to mind the happy faces of children who may live in poverty, but still smile because they have their families close. That gets me thinking of the times we are in now as we pull together during this time of pandemic. Being alone with lots of things would be empty if I did not have other human or animal contact. It is the connection that keeps the sanity and brings the happiness.

Practicing gratitude and appreciation is important to a happy life. Don't take the small things for granted. A smile can go a long way to making someone's day.
