Hang onto it and don't let it go.<br /><br />My particular brand of happiness now would have to be when hubby and I are sitting on the couch and for no reason, he'll reach out and curl his hand over mine.

At least, they are all reasons to grin and enjoy the moment. :)<br /><br /><br />My brand of happy right now is "hug those tiny kids tight because you're going to miss this one day" and "it's crisp and fresh and springalicious outside so enjoy your long walks once again" and "loving the excitement of writing a new shiny new idea".

My happiness is definitely my wife and kids....<br /><br />My happiness is taking my 3 1/2 year old son trick or treating when I'm not wearing a costume, and he asks me what my costume is.... After I tell him that I'm not wearing a costume, he thinks for a second and tells me 'I know! Your costume is 'the best daddy in the world!'<br /><br />That's my happiness!California Keyshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09105598836618841680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5328014776473730528.post-33596096888617461062010-03-13T17:45:50.540-05:002010-03-13T17:45:50.540-05:00Beautiful post, dolls!

The journey is amazing to watch and I love that you love it. There is nothing better than to do that which you are passionate about and like you said - see the words you chose and the stories you created in the hands of others.<br /><br />My brand of happy?<br /><br />Simplicity.

Those kids are going to be beside themselves when you sign books for them. My daughter is writing a novel (she's at 20,000 words), she adores my published friends and aspires to be like them. :) You are role models...a position of power and responsibility.Sharon K.

Which, shockingly, boosts your creativity immensely. So I can't call it a complete waste of time.<br /><br />I am happy when I eat chocolate with friends and look ahead to an empty week filled with a simple test (filling up two days) I'm already guarenteed to pass. I bet I can write at least six chapters in that time, if not ten. Aiming for ten...:P<br /><br />Love your posts. You two deserve every moment of happiness out there. :)Cipherqueenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11386244158313306782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5328014776473730528.post-4913249490383574072010-03-12T22:34:08.051-05:002010-03-12T22:34:08.051-05:00Excellent post.

I don't need to share my thoughts in secret. I can create without fear, and I can create without the need of a fake identity or a buzzcut or a uniform. <br />I'm happy because I want something from this freedom and I haven't given up on that goal yet. And I haven't given up yet because I'm happy.
