The Book of Happiness – Epilogue

Dave — Sat, 31 Jul 2010 04:01:24 +0000

A long-awaited and long-delayed project came to a close this week as I completed the epilogue to my epic tome, The Book of Happiness. I may touch up a few of these if I feel like it, but just to warn you, I probably won’t feel like it.

The Book of Happiness – Meditation 15: The Heart

Dave — Sun, 29 Mar 2009 22:07:32 +0000

Ah, the heart, often cited as the most powerful muscle in the human body. Actually, that honor goes to your jaw muscles. But don’t let that diminish your praises for the beauty of the human heart.

Enjoy Meditation #15 from The Book of Happiness: The Heart.

The Book of Happiness – Meditation 14: Expressions

Dave — Sun, 08 Feb 2009 01:56:01 +0000

Capable of displaying a wide range of feelings and communicating the deepest truths, the human face is a beautiful thing, isn’t it? Sometimes, anyway. Enjoy Meditation #14 from The Book of Happiness: Expressions.

The Book of Happiness – Meditation 12: Share a Kiss

Even Mother Nature knows that sometimes all we need is a kiss from a loved one to get through the day. Or perhaps a little comfort food. Enjoy Meditation #12 from The Book of Happiness: Share a Kiss.

The Book of Happiness – Meditation 11: A Haiku

Dave — Mon, 13 Oct 2008 00:57:16 +0000

Ah, the haiku. A simple yet elegant form of poetry so accessible that anyone can write one and think himself a genius—nay, a savant. Enjoy the latest installment of The Book of Happiness: A Haiku.

The Book of Happiness – Meditation 10: Hope

Dave — Mon, 29 Sep 2008 21:24:33 +0000

Well, today I am worn out and sick, so it hasn’t exactly been a productive time. I’m struggling to do anything that requires sustained, coherent thought. Fortunately, The Book of Happiness requires neither sustained nor coherent thought.

So, without further ado, I present the highly motivating Meditation 10: “Hope.”

The Book of Happiness – Meditation 9: Faith

Dave — Sat, 05 Jul 2008 21:06:53 +0000

Inspirational quotes are great, as long as you don’t know where they came from. Enjoy Meditation #9 from The Book of Happiness: Faith.

UPDATE: The timing couldn’t be better.

The Book of Happiness – Meditation 8: Believe

Dave — Wed, 02 Apr 2008 02:57:47 +0000

It has been a long hiatus, but I’m back to blogging. It’s been a crazy time with seminary, though honestly, I could have blogged during this time…I just haven’t. So the time has come to break the non-habit of not blogging. I present the latest installment of The Book of Happiness: “Believe.”

The Book of Happiness – Meditation 7: Possible

Dave — Fri, 25 Jan 2008 04:49:08 +0000

Find yourself!

But where to begin?

Why not start here with meditation #7 from The Book of Happiness: Possible.

Dave — Sat, 15 Dec 2007 06:16:54 +0000
