What makes you happy?

Postby newuser » Thu Jul 12, 2012 2:51 pm

I would like to create this thread and want to hear everyone's input on what makes them happy. I would like to start by saying socializing with food makes me happy. also watching tv with my husband makes me happy. my therapist said reading humorous novels is good way to make you happy.

When it's a sunny, warm day and the breeze, scented with wildflowers and healthy greens, catches my nose just right.

When my daughter has a laughing fit.

When my place is clean and there are no more chores.

Robert Pattinson ;)

Massive lightning & thunder shows.

Listening to the loons call to each other on a lake.

Getting to have girl time with a friend.
Blame it on me, but know that I won't regret one iota.

Seeing people in situations of calamity and despair, to know that I am not the saddest person alive.

Yes, I'm sadistic, but I only watch.

-Music
-Nature (Lucky I live in a big forest in Canada)
-Just sitting and thinking
-My tweezers (I spend a good 6-8 hours a day chewing on or fiddling with them...)

Hmm I can't think of much else right now.
