A Dream Coming True

WOW! I am so excited! It's really happening! I signed up a little over 5 weeks ago for SARK's Dream Boogie e-course and I had no idea what my dream even was and now my dream (oh by the way, I know what it is now), is a real live website!!!

BrainBeHappy.com is set to go live on March 21. The "Coming Soon" page is already active - so go and visit!!! This community is so exciting! As a survivor of several mental disorders, and losing my memory due to some complications from ECT (Electro Convulsive Therapy) Treatments, I felt I had a story to tell and I felt like my experiences would benefit others. I also knew there was a need for a website - a place for the mentally ill and those dealing with complications due to brain trauma to go/come to get information and to meet and get support from one another.

Another element that I wanted this website to have was HAPPINESS! Happiness just makes everything better. So, there is a big part of the website that is devoted to happiness - It's called "The Happiness Corner" I want everyone who visits to leave feeling exuberantly happy and I want them to come back often to get daily doses of happiness :-).

And for those who want a daily dose of happiness, come and visit me here. I know that if we choose to, we can find happiness wherever we look. We can turn any situation, even if it's a bad situation into something that is happy. I speak from experience. A year and a half ago I lost my memory. Some say "Oh that's horrible!" But I like the response I got from one of the sweetest girls I've ever met. She said, "That is so cool! You have a clean slate! I would love to lose my memory! You have nothing to feel guilty about, because you don't remember anything you've ever done!" Ever since that response, I've done nothing but look on the bright side of this experience :-). I still have some trouble with short-term memory loss. It's not all that bad. I can watch a movie in December and forget about it by February. I can watch it again and it's like I'm watching a whole new movie :-) tee-hee...

So that's my crusade... to make people and myself happy. Happy times... let's see how many happy times we can have! Come and visit often. I'd love to hear from you. Tell me your happy thoughts!
