Take a quick moment and ask yourself this question, “Are you really happy?”. I’d love to say that as the writer of this blog, Defining Happy, that my life is filled with skips through lavender fields, impromptu moonwalks down the sidewalk, and an abundance of happy days but that’s not the case. I’m Continue reading

Are You Already Slacking On Your Resolutions?
Ok so I guess I’ve abandoned this blog been away long enough. So let’s get this party started…..again.
It’s a brand spanking new year and judging by the decreasing amount of cars in the gym parking lot it’s about that time where some of us start to slack on our mile long list of New Year’s resolutions. I know we are all tired of hearing the cliché Continue reading
I’m Possible
I was recently on a telephone conversation trying to gather some information for a move I’m trying to make in regard to my career. The cat on the phone seemed more than eager to tell me that what I was trying to accomplish was “impossible”. He had repeated this word about 5 times in a matter of seconds. Before I knew it I had completely shut him down by replying, Continue reading
….in peace.
This post (well any post for that matter) is well over due. It isn’t that I haven’t thought about writing. My pen is definitely my therapy….it has been for 30 years. I think I’ve been apprehensive to put thoughts to paper for fear that I wasn’t ready to release and inhale what I was feeling.

Baby I’m back
I’ve read stories about people coming back home after long term travel abroad and it being difficult for them to readjust or find their place in the world. After having so many off the wall, unexpected, and once-in-a-lifetime experiences on a daily basis it can be a shock to the system to come back to mediocrity. I had planned to take a few months to regroup and think about all that I had accomplished and realized during my travels and how exactly to incorporate that in to my “new life”. However Continue reading
The art of serenity
Although a tad bit harsh you have to admit that you can’t get any more real than the statement above. I will absolutely admit that as a teenager….I used to be some what of a hothead. While that didn’t include embarrassing myself in public if things didn’t go my way, anyone (and I mean anyone) who didn’t do right by me would feel the wrath. Continue reading
‘Spensive
So after a month of being back in the states I just have one thing to say…. “IT IS ‘SPENSIVE AS HECK TO LIVE IN THE UNITED STATES”.
Some new and extremely foolish person that I recently met insinuated that my reason for returning back to the states was probably because Continue reading
