Sometimes life feels heavy, complicated, or just a little gray around the edges.
You know those seasons—when the sparkle dims and the road feels long?
In those moments, you don’t always need to do something new to find joy.
Sometimes the fastest way back to bliss…
is to remember.
Remember that moment you got what you hoped for.
The thrill. The gratitude. The lightness.
The feeling that, just for a moment, the universe gave you a big, beaming “YES.”
Why Remembering Matters
Your brain loves to rehearse problems—it’s wired for survival.
But joy? Bliss? They need to be revisited intentionally.
When you consciously reconnect with a past moment of joy, you:
Remind your heart that good things are possible.
Reignite hope—even if today feels messy.
Re-anchor yourself in gratitude, celebration, and trust.
You don’t erase the hard stuff by remembering the good.
You balance it. You nourish your soul with truth:
You’ve been blessed before. And you can be blessed again.
A Little Reflection Exercise (You Can Do Right Now)
Close your eyes (after you read this!) and ask yourself:
-
When was a time I got something I deeply hoped for?
-
How did it feel in my body? (Light, buzzing, soft, safe?)
-
Who was with me? What did I say? How did I celebrate?
Sit with that memory. Let it flood you. Let it fill you.
Smile. Laugh. Cry. Dance. Whatever it stirs—let it be real.
Because that joy still lives in you.
It didn’t disappear.
It’s part of your story forever.
My Own Moment of Bliss
There was a moment—not so long ago—when I literally stepped into a dream I had been nurturing quietly for years–a new house. It wasn’t flashy. It wasn’t Instagram-perfect.
But in my heart, it felt like a door swinging wide open.
I remember thinking: “This is it. I’m living inside something I once only dared to imagine.”
That memory still feeds me on hard days.
It reminds me that patience, persistence, and hope are never wasted.
And you have moments like that too.
I know you do.
You don’t have to create joy from scratch today.
You just have to remember.
You’ve already been loved.
You’ve already been gifted.
You’ve already stood in the sunshine of a dream realized.
Let that memory light your path forward.
