Day 15

 I love the fact that I have people in my life that are truly "rays of sunshine and buckets of happiness".  You know, the folks who laugh easily and often and find humor in all situations; the ones who help you see your problems as do-able and so much smaller than you thought they were.  People like my friend Boo who find humor in a situation as unsettling as when her son's pet iguana jumped from a family member's arms, to her face - attaching itself with its claws and wouldn't let go. Her skin was tearing and she was desperately trying to remove the creature from her face while her entire family stared in shock - yet when it was finally removed, she broke the ice by laughing hysterically; cuz it really was funny...  I admire people like that.  Did she die? No.  Was it painful? Yes. Does it make for an incredible story when life is boring? Absolutely.  Are you one of those people that everyone wants to be around because you are just fun to be with?  Do you have people like that in your life?  I hope you do because we all need rays of sunshine and baskets of happiness to brighten our lives. 
Day 15
If you have a joy maker in your life - tell them how much you appreciate them and their contagious enthusiasm for life.  Write down 15 things you are grateful for.
