the happiness jar
- 459 words - Everything began, and ended, when we made a happiness jar.
- Simply put, a happiness jar is when you write a little note at the end of the day about one thing that made you happy or you are grateful for. Place that note into a jar, and repeat the next day until your jar is filled with notes. Open your jar at any point so you can look back and appreciate all the happy things you have encountered :')
- Click on the arrows in any order to reveal unfolding and sprawling 'notes' until the end
- (Based on my experience years ago when I made my own happiness jar with someone else for fun. Though, rather than getting uplifted from reading all the notes, for various reasons, it ended up feeling a bit poignant instead haha... still it was an interesting experience! 73% would recommend)
Thanks for checking it out! ✨

A peculiar form of gratitude journaling. 😊
wow! now that you mentioned it, you are right!! this is exactly like gratitude journaling, except that instead of catharsis, it makes you inadvertently feel sadder haha (i did try journalling and would say that it works a lot better than making a happiness jar 🤭)
You are so humble. 😅
ooh ... only at the end i realised how this felt like a note from the jar, like something you're reading to get the gist of it, only at the end you realise it was the process of reading that was good — something something like perceived moments of happiness of trying to reach a goal, only after you reached the goal you realise that it was the journey that was the most important part. what a bittersweet and lovely experience O.O
awww yes you described it wonderfully! ^^ thanks so much for reading and making sense of my sporatic musings haha i'm glad you liked the experience even with the dubiously shocked face xD
(also it's great to see you again bucketfish! hehe hope you are doing well💕)
