Splash Of Sunshine

They did one of those human interest stories on the news last night about whether vacations increase happiness. According to a research study (can't remember from where, Sweden, I think), vacations do not increase happiness due to the stress of returning to the life you stepped out of among other things. They went on to say that the anticipation preceding the vacation is where the happiness is greatest

I can certainly say that today's happiness factor was not half as great as the day before I left for vacation.

Guess I better get another vacation on the calendar as soon as possible.
