Spiritual Awakening: Can Oreos Bring Happiness?

I was feeling a bit down today as certain aspects of my life seemed out of balance and then my mom called and we had a difficult conversation and then I began to make phone calls to set appointments for one of my clients as ran into a whole lot of rejection. It was at that moment that I took a deep breath and started to think put a smile on my face and make plans after it is all done for the day to go to my clubhouse and grab some oreos and an iced tea. As I started to eat the first Oreo a sense of joy came over me, which got me to thinkig can Oreos bring happiness? The answer is not that the Oreos were bringing happiness it was what they represented that brought happiness as they represented a joyful time when I would open up the Oreos take them appart and lick out the filling and this memory helped me to make a shift and realize that as challanging as things are at times you can find happiness in something as easy as an Oreo.

 I know for many of my readers who are into health and wellness the choice of oreos to bring happiness is not the best so I am seeking alternatives and have  found a few:

1: Meditation and remembering about oreos and then having a healthy snack

2: Only having oreos as a treat or a reward then running on the treadmill for one hour to burn them off and finding joy in the creation of the endorfins that are being created.

The quest I am on now is to eliminate the charge associated with the oreos and find another source of happiness that must come from the inside. I was thinking about starting an Oreos Annonymous Group.

The quest has led me to this chart and I will be weening myself away from the oreos to more fruits and veggies. If you happen to see me at an event going for the oreos remind me about this chart:

 So the answer is yes Oreoes can bring happiness, however their are better choices that will make you happy.

This is the new formula to use to bring happiness and joy into my life so I can be a shining light for others.
