Action

Action-reaction!

En dag i slutten av april, dukka det opp en e-post fra en organisasjon som kaller seg Action for Happiness med overskriften Meaningful May - be part of something bigger. Vedlagt var det en kalender med oppgaver for hver dag i mai. Alle oppgavene hadde til felles at de var vinkla mot psykisk helse, velvære, omsorg, engasjement, sosial handling, livsmestring, miljøbevissthet ol.
Ikke ante jeg hvorfor e-posten ble sendt meg, men noen ganger føles det som om skjebnen rår, og jeg fant det naturlig å følge oppfordringene. 
Hver dag ble oppgavene utført så godt jeg var i stand til.
Hvis noen er nysgjerrig på hva det gikk ut på, er det bare å søke med ordene Action for Happiness og ta en kikk.

Etter litt leting kommer svaret på hvorfor jeg fikk e-posten..... med årene blir en jo litt glemsk... for jeg hadde deltatt på  International Day of Happiness 2017, March 20, med et blogginnlegg, se her

Ja, da står vi foran en måned til full av aktiviteter, en for hver dag. For første juli er oppgaven å lage en liste over ting jeg ser fram til.

Denne lista er lang....Høyt oppe står elvesingelstier i haven, og montering av vindeleka på drivhustaket. Det er ingen hemmelighet!

Dagens aktivitet:

Vi befinner oss ikke på fjellet, men ved kysten, nærmere bestemt Ytre Oslofjord. Dette er et sjeldent vulkanlandskap for å være på disse trakter.

International Day of Happiness 2018 March 20 gikk meg dessverre hus forbi... nå er 20. mars 2019 allerede planlagt postlagt foreløpig uten innhold!
