Am I truly happy and am I living an abundant life?

For the past few weeks I have been struggling to fill my Empty Bucket. Many days I feel like I have done a good job of it and other days... I feel like I failed in deed. My problem on those latter days is...I was trying to do it alone. I know better, but still sometimes.... it is easier to think that you can do it all by yourself IF you just try harder and longer. The truth is ...I never have to do it alone unless I choose too. This sweet video  story that I found here:
It reminded me of this very subject, why am I such a slow learner some times? ( You don't have to really answer that? )
I hope you will take the time to watch it, and realize that none of us need to try and do it alone. We could be living an Abundant Life if...we keep Christ in our lives. Why is that so hard to remember? We seem to never forget it from after Thanksgiving and on into the Christmas Season. But it is the rest of the year that is the real test. Is Christ a part of our lives? And if not....why? And if so....how is your life changed because of it?
It truly is where my greatest happiness comes from, I just forget that sometimes. This was a great reminder!
Good night dear friends!
