Hard times can be:

-natural disaster
-job loss
-divorce
-death of a loved one
-losing a job
-severe illness
Today is an important day for me and my family.
Four years ago, on May 20th, my 10-year old nephew passed suddenly.
This was very difficult for all of us, as you can imagine.
Now that it has been four years, I’ve noticed how our family has shifted. We have really embraced our time together, we’ve become more grateful for little things, and we are much more positive. Even though we do miss him terribly.
A loyal reader/viewer of my weekly tips submitted the question of: how can I experience joy and contentment even in hard times?
This is close to my heart, and I think most of us can relate.

In light of the ritual I’ve made for myself for every year on May 20th, I ask you to remember your loved ones that have passed today in a positive way.
What joy did they bring you?
And don’t forget to say “I love you” to who needs to hear it. Make sure the ones you love, know you love them!
