Bliss, five rules, and multitudes

My friends, I'm doubly excited because my writing is featured on not one, but two sites today!

First up: my response to Blisschick's December question. (The question was: What is the main difficulty you have encountered in trying to craft a life of bliss? What have you tried to do about this?) Be sure to check out Blisschick's January question and submit your response (guidelines here). I'm sure she would love to hear from you!

Second, my "Five Rules for Life" were published. Five Rules for Life is a site where "people from all walks share what they believe are the most important rules to follow for a happy, successful, and fulfilling life." I'd love to hear what you think of my rules! You can submit your own five rules to the site here.

It's such a thrill to share my thoughts on two of my favorite sites. Thanks to Christine (aka Blisschick) and Jon at Five Rules for Life for giving me the opportunity!

P.S. Yes, I do see the irony in the fact that my response to Blisschick (about mindful rule-breaking) was published on the same day as my five rules. As Whitman would say, "Do I contradict myself? Very well then, I contradict myself. (I am large. I contain multitudes)."
