Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass,
it's about learning how to dance in the rain.
- My friend, Chelsey, gave me a sweet sign for Christmas with this quotation.
I know it's widely used with bloggers but I don't know who said it (no one seems to know).
But I like it!
Especially since it's raining as I write.
I think one of the secrets to happiness in life is to surround yourself with happy people.
That's why I love blogging-
I've met the happiest people who are determined to have a great life, no matter what.
And you are not happy in a superficial way.
You guys are happy because you see the beauty and good in so many things.
And you share it generously.
So, dance in the rain.
Make your lemonade.
Turn that frown upside down.
Turn that frown upside down.
Make a wish on a weed (a dandelion to be exact).
Just, please, keep doing what you're doing
and share that happiness with everybody.
Happiness is like a large net-
it grabs the greatest amount of people in one act.
Most of all, thank you for being the wonderfully inspirational people you are all.
I can only imagine the world of good you are doing.

These photos are incredible and so beautiful! That's one of my favorite quotes, actually.
Thanks for birthday wish! :)
Tiffany, the reason I started reading your blog and wanted to get to know you is because you're doing so much good yourself. I admire you and love who you are and I'm so glad this strange blogging world brought us together.
And the photos I love. Between you and Susan, I totally want to take up dance again.
so true!! Thanks for all your sweet positivity!!
you totally inspire me, girl.
i hope we have the chance to share a cup of coffee one day. :)
Awwww.... your blog is definitely inspiring and uplifting too.
Wish upon a weed? I love that!
Great blog post! I love the photos of all the dancers. I feel like I've been letting myself get too easily irritated these days...
What a wonderful post, full of happiness and positive energy! I completely agree with everything you've said... and thank goodness for blog-land where we all share our happy moments so freely with one another.
This made me smile from ear to ear (no small feat, considering just how yucky it is outside)!
This quote has spoken to me very deeply. You are the best! Thank you!
this is exactly what i needed to read today! and you are definitely one of those people who spread genuine happiness with the world, this post being a perfect example. right now life is pretty hard for me. there are naturally exciting moments, but mostly life is depressing and scary ... until i climb into blogland that is. here i am reminded of all the other people across the world who are supporting me, rooting for me, and going through the same thing as me. together we can vent and then share inspiration to rejuvenate our souls. i'm so thankful for this space and all of you wonderful people out there who i've gotten to know through blogging, you especially. so thank you!!
I like visiting happy blogs- like yours.
Well said... blogland is just filled w/ wonderful, compassionate people! xo
FAVORITE post of the day! Thanks for always inspiring.
What truth you speak! I definitely am a happy gal and definitely love to be with other happy guys and gals... 'cause there truly is so much amazing lovely wonderful things to be happy about in life... where's the fun in perpetual crabbypants??
xoxo J
lurrrve the quote, Tiffany!
I used to love playing in the rain when I was a kid! Should do it again one rainy day...
Dancing is joy in motion. What a beautiful philosophy.
I love that quote too- and those photos are stunning!
I love happy, positive people! It's so wonderful to have friends and family who are full of joy, smiles and love. I love it. :) Great post! Loved the photos as well- they worked perfectly.
Great post! So much of life is what you make it and in so many ways happiness really is a choice.
Thank you for sharing your motivational, inspirational energy. It is the bloggers like you that got me into blogging in the first place. xoxo
Love the quote, think i might frame it too.
Aahh, I don't even consider myself as an especially happy person - but in my blog I (try to) focus on the good things in life, and coming to yours always makes me happy, Tiffany!
you are right, happiness is a choice. and I agree with Krystal, you are always an inspiration to us.
What a great post, I love that quote and I agree bloggers are amazing and just the sort of folks I want to be surrounded by! Does wishing on a weed include smoking some? Just kidding!!!
your post inspired me to continue my dance school.. thanks for this site..
