Last year, I received a very meaningful gift after going through a personally difficult time. A friend of mine put 365 tiny notes, quotes, and happy drawings into a huge jar labeled "2015". Then, I could either pick out a new piece of paper for daily inspiration or go to the jar when I needed a pick-me-up. The jar was absolutely helpful in remembering to be happy and ever-grateful for all of life's ups and downs. So, as 2016 approached, I decided that I wanted to make a jar of my own! However, I chose to write down a happy memory that happened each day, date it, and put it in the jar. I hope to continue this throughout the year and read back over the memories on New Years Eve!
So far, some of the highlights include:
Flying to Las Vegas to reunite with a friend
Making pie with my roommates after returning from winter break
Hearing about my best friend's trip across Southeast Asia
Booking a trip to Australia for Spring Break
I look forward to keeping up with documenting all these happy moments!
