“There is one thing one has to have:



either a soul that is cheerful by nature,


or a soul made cheerful by work, love, art, and knowledge.”


Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900); Scholar, Writer, Philosopher





I,

most definitely,

have the latter.

...so do I. Interestingly, I think we are both married to men who are more the "cheerful by nature" type...which makes for a nice balance in a marriage...

I like to think I am the first but I probably am the 2nd. What about "cheerful by chocolate?"

LaRee said...

I agree with the "latter"...I also agree with "cheerful by chocolate!"

I think most of us are definitely the latter and I really liked LaRee's cheerful by chocolate...works for me :-)! I want to be more like Cheryl, I think she is the happiest person I have ever met and it is definitely contagious to be around.

About Me

My photo
I married my high school sweetheart 34 years ago in the LDS Temple. I have 4 children (3 married, and a 14 year old) and 6 grandchildren. I lived my entire life in California, until 6 years ago. I now reside in San Antonio, Texas. The most important thing to me is my family; I have invested the most in them and it has paid great dividends. I love doing anything creative that beautifies my surroundings and I love nature. I minored in Art and majored in Interior Design at BYU, yet, my profession is a Tax Preparer.
