Wandering over to The Women on the Web, I was happy to find author Gretchen Rubin is contributing there. Rubin is the renowned author of “The Happiness Project”, and a foremost expert on happiness, specifically happiness in women. Her article at WOWOWOW contends that happy people….wait for it….make other people happy. A simple, but novel concept.
I can’t help but hearken back to Elle Woods and the notion that, “happy people just don’t kill their husbands.” Pretty in pink, maybe, but probably true. Women who make their husbands happy, according to Gretchen Rubin, are probably happy themselves. They are fun to be around. They attract people. They create communities that induce happiness.
