The Secret of Happiness

I’m still learning a lot. I’m trying to install an e-mail feed in this blog. The first piece of coding I found didn’t quite work. The second one created the form just fine, but it would have linked the reader to another site. Not quite what I was looking for! In the fullness of time I’ll probably get the information I need.The important thing is I’m enjoying the trip.

Nathaniel Branden says, “The secret of happiness is to ask yourself every day: What’s good about my life? What needs to be done?” I would add a third question: “How can I get this done and enjoy the process?” Since no one is forcing me to build this blog, I figure the only failure would be if I didn’t enjoy myself doing it. How stupid would that be?
