A fifth way would be to spend some time in nature, like strolling along the banks of a creek, listening to the water bubbling over the river stones.- Thank five people. This doesn’t need to be someone significant for doing something significant. Thank the person bagging at the grocery store for not making your bag too heavy. Thank the bank teller for brightening your day with his smile. Thank a veteran for what she's done. Thank your husband for making such a good pot of coffee . . . you get the picture.
- Step outside at home or at the office and breathe deeply a couple times. Notice how the air smells, and how it feels—is it crisp or muggy?
- Only eat sitting down today. And use a plate and utensils, not your fingers.
- Declare today a non-news day. Don’t listen to the radio, TV or Internet news, and don’t read a newspaper today. If that’s too hard for you news junkies, then just catch the news from one source for a limited amount of time.

I liked the article on the four ways to better your day. All those things make your day better, like thanking someone. That shows a common goal in happieness being two people. Also, I thought that the fourth way very true. Don't watch news, or media coverage because news only shows the stuff that yanks people's attention away like killings and global warming.
What a lovely reminder to us all to stop our hectic day, take a breath and enjoy the life we have to live.
we all to often get too caught up in our buisy bee lives buzzing here and there and forgetting to actually live life and not let out lives take us over.
