The final challenge for 2025 encourages us to go forward into the year looking for moments of joy.

Today, I invite you to pause for a little and…

Challenge #15

Talk about an unexpected joyous moment you experienced last year.

[hellip;]

Joy comes in lots of forms. Did something make you giggle or crack a smile when you didn’t expect to? Or feel surprisingly content, satisfied, pleased, glad, or warm?

The moment can be quiet, loud, brief, big — maybe it lasted a second, maybe it spanned months. Maybe it was something you saw or heard or read, or something you or somebody did.

There’s no right or wrong answer; only your answer! ;D


Why I have to work hard to remember the good things, and good things that I remember )

So yeah, there are those moments of joy and happiness that happen all throughout the year, and I try to pay at least some attention to them. (And some of them end up reappearing on performance evaluations for the year, or I dip back into them when I want to reassure myself that people do enjoy the works that I do for them in exchanges and other.) I highly recommend that if you don't already, that you start keeping a folder of the good things people say about you, your fanworks, or your excellence at your work, hobby, or otherwise. They can be really helpful for bludgeoning brainweasels trying to convince you that you have had no impact nor worth to anyone else.
