What makes you happy? Can you name 10 things that make you happy? Try it! It’s a fun activity and I am thrilled to feature what makes the A Beautiful Ripple Effect community happy :). This guest post is curated by Brandon Ledford! Brandon shares his fun side with us in this post, but he’s got a HUGE inspiring side that I’m going to share with you in another post. He is changing our world, one day at a time.
Hi all! My name is Brandon Ledford. I am a 26 year old graduate student and research assistant at the George Mason University School of Public Policy. I am getting my graduate degree in Public Policy, with an emphasis in Health Policy and Science and Technology Policy. Basically, I want to be a part of the cancer curing process. Since I was not cut out to be a scientist, I knew that I could make a difference in the cancer policy arena. I am also proud to say that I am a cancer survivor and a recent recipient of the incredible Carolyn’s Compassionate Children’s Scholarship!
I look forward to adding a guy’s perspective to the “Ten Things That Make Me Happy” series. Just a quick note: my family, friends, and work make me very happy. They just are not as fun or appropriate for this list! I hope you enjoy the list, and let’s start this off right …
Whole Foods Steak
A good steak definitely makes me happy. You can get them at any grocery store, but I highly recommend Whole Foods steaks. There are not any antibiotics or hormones in the meat, and it is as close to a butcher shop as you can get at a grocery store.
Moleskine Large Ruled Notebook
I use these Moleskine notebooks all the time. It is very sturdy, and they look great. I use them for classes, scheduling, and note-taking. They have many different sizes and types.
