DECEMEBER the Ultimate Gift
“We are constituted so that simple acts of kindness, such as giving to charity or expressing gratitude, have a positive effect on our long-term moods. The key to a happy life, it seems, is the good life: a life with sustained relationships, challenging work, and connections to community”
~ Paul Bloom
Wow! You’ve made it through the entire year of the happiness challenge! This final challenge will likely be a huge gift to yourself and to the person who receives it. As we finish the year and move into the holidays it seems appropriate to save this one for last.
THE CHALLENGE
For this month’s challenge you will be writing a Gratitude/Acknowledgement Letter. You will need to think back to someone who has made a significant impact on your life but whom you have never had a chance to tell or thank. Write this person a letter outlining what they did that impacted your life, how it affected you and what you are doing now.
Write your letter and then decide how you are going to deliver it to the recipient. You can email or mail the letter but better yet…Why not give it in person?? Make a date to meet that person but don’t disclose the reason for the visit. When you meet, read the letter to them in its entirety.
Congratulations everyone! I hope you found this year of the Happiness Challenge as fun and useful as I have.
