Thank you for reading the story, Is Jumping Naked into a Lake the Key to Happiness?
Its takeaway is: Sometimes sitting and doing nothing is the best something you can do.
Now grab your notebook or journal and if this line evokes something in you, write down what you are thinking.
If not, here are three prompts – borrowed from the story – to write about instead:
- If you think about the teenage version of yourself, what ten things would you have listed when aiming for the perfect life? Do you have all those things now? In the end, were they all important things to have?
- Looking at life as an addition problem, what would you ADD to your life in order to be happier?
- Looking at life as a subtraction problem, what would you SUBTRACT from your life in order to be happier?
As always, write about one of these prompts or all of them. There is no right or wrong, just what feels best to you.
