The three things that bring joy to my life are my children and my husband.
Another thing that brings joy to my life is helping my aunt take care of her great-grand kids. The third thing that brings joy to my life is religion.
My family brings joy to my life because we love each other, we comfort each other. We have fun and learn together. We make sure we respect one another. My Husband make me laugh a lot. We are a very affectionate family.
It is a delight to help my aunt raise her great-grand kids. She had them since they were two months and now they are three years old twin boys. To watch them grow into there own little individual self is amazing.
Religion brings joy to my life to know there is a higher power in life. That one day there will be no more pain and suffering. We can pray and ask for forgiveness and it would be heard.

Hello Rachelle!!!
ReplyDeleteOne of the things we have in common is that we both receive a lot of joy from our families. I think family is one of the things we are going to hear over and over in this assignment all of us or at least a good part of us can relate to the fact that families bring a lot of joy into our lives.
It is also great that you are helping your aunt to raise these children there are not a lot of people like you and it is sad, because you and me know how much joy we can get out of doing such a thing.
God is always part of our lives no matter the religion he is always present in our lives one way or another.
Rachelle,
ReplyDeleteYou seem to be a very family oriented person. Two out of three of your sources of happiness are around family. I think it takes a very special and strong person to take on the extra responsibility of taking care of someone else's responsibilities, while taking care of your own as well.
Hey Rachelle,
ReplyDeleteThere is one key factor that is set within your three things that bring you joy and as stated by Edward Thorndike "social intelligence is the ability to act wisely in our relationships." (Bruno,2009, pp. 15-16)
This is what you are doing especially when you are showing genuine love for your aunt and the twins.
The fact that you and your husband can continue to find joy within your relationship is truly a blessing. My husband and I still find the joy and happiness of hearing each other's laughter; we have been finding this joy for 24 years now and it is wonderful!
