Life & happiness

What's something in your life that makes you happy? To many threads on here can be depressing, let's make a happy place.

Things that make me happy:

books, love how the paper smells
finding something in an antique store that reminds me of my grandmother
being around bodies of water- oceans, lakes, rivers doesn't matter
sunsets with tons of colors
rain puddles 🙂

I can add more but wanted to hear from you guys too!!

Books, music, my child, quiet time & my job of course.

I like sitting down 🙂

Just in chairs? Or do couches, beds and beanbags work too? 😛

Chairs for sitting, couches for lounging, beds for sleeping!

I am afraid of beanbags--I'm pretty sure they are made by aliens or at least filled with alien materials.

Do pets count? 🙂 No children for me.

@sporklifter.. no they are filled with BEANSSSSSSS .. it is a beanbag chair 😛

As for the rain puddles I listed. I loved to walk barefoot in them as a kid.



^^ Makes me want to go out and play!

I enjoy making music, and doing a lot of things to keep myself happy such as my parakeets, and the people I love. That's all that matters in a world like this. Oh yeah and cuddling is cool

Fluffy things, shiny things, sparkly things, my best friend, my mother, my comfy bed, Spring, rainy days, ditto on bodies of water, 70's music (so positive), All Music, Winning card/board games, Weeeed (bluedream is euphoric) 😆, food (I like treats), Hot Coco, Everything and anything Chocolate! (cept for mint, and fruit fillings, Flowers, Star lit skies, Happy endings, Accomplishing difficult tasks, When things come out exactly how I wanted it too... lol

Thanks!

One more lol??_

I'm going to go put bbq sauce into my beanbag and bake it!

Carlikins!!! I like your list 🙂 more of an 80s girl myself, but love me some 60/70s rock! Some of the best music ever made was in the 70s.


@virguy do you play an instrument? I used to play violin but has been many years.. need to dust that thing off!

Thanks and I concur! I'm a 90's babe = ) R&B/Hiphop/Rock/Pop loved it all! 60's Motown/funk, 70's rock/disco, but the 70's was just filled with brilliant, creative, and inspiring people in music in general.

Lol that was a good drawing

I like being around kids and animals they always make me laugh.

I like drinking and listening to tunes in the afternoon on my friends porch in the sun, getting brown and eventually watching it set and being in twilight is always a good time for me.

I love good coffee.

swimming in clear blue water

being in a happy state of mind makes me happy lol??_.it depends on my environment.

This make me happy now

YOU WERE IN TWILIGHT?

God I hate that movie with the power of a thousand suns

lol NO! I rewrote what I said a couple of times actually to make it sound like It was not Twilight related but i guess I failed!??_??_I can't watch that movie without getting angry!!!??_.I read did read the books however 😐

c'mon damnata with your definitely on team edward!! 😄

I will get back to this a lot. Always thought I'd compile a long ass list...a lot of things make me happy. Skipping past the friends and partner and all that jazz...I tend to recall precise moments or things

Winter
Rain
Smell of candles
Smell of old books
Photograph albums
Kids crossing my path and smiling at me
My little Leo cousin
My dad playing the guitar
Swimming, being near lakes or the sea
Finding perfect sea shells
Treasure hunting contests
Charity work
Seeing old people holding hands on the street
Bubble baths
Cooking for my friends, hell cooking for anyone. I hate cooking for myself
Traveling
Losing myself in a different city, exploring each alley, off the beaten path
Seeing kindness around me. I always tear up at touching photographs of nice human being
Fireworks

Comfy couches

Psychology textbooks

The beach

Running on my treadmill

I find solace in doing yard work

My computer

My bed

A clean shower

80's music

I love winter!!!
Coffee 🙂
Long drives.

Why does incense & candles sound odd? Because your a guy?

I love almost all music, from classical to rock, not a fan of rap, that stuff can go bye bye lol. I get lost in music or use it to express moods.

I was a huge gamer for years- what RPG's you play?
I got hooked on Final fantasy 8, was my first love of games.

adding to my list:
soft blankets
cocoa (my grandmothers 🙂)
bonfires
dragons!


@damnata you know you love Twilight girl. you live in sparkle capital😛

taking pictures of nature
walks in the woods
windstorms!!

today my bed makes me happy! Not much sleep this week has taken its toll! 😢

Hmm...Things that make me happy:

1. Doing a random good deed for someone else or seeing someone else do this "just because."

2. Seeing fathers who are very hands-on with their children just as much as the mothers are.

3. Seeing people walk away from toxic relationships/situations & growing stronger from it

4. Seeing family units out in public...ya know...the mom, the dad pushing the baby stroller & the family laughing & enjoying themselves (don't fall for the hype/pessimism that people don't want/have/value the art of a "family unit" anymore)

5. Beaches...oceans...anything involving nature. It's so peaceful & so beautiful

6. Seeing someone beat/defeat the odds...ya know, the person who survived even though doctors told them they wouldn't, seeing plus-sized or not "Beyonce" looking women succeed & get just as much success/respect/acknowledge for their beauty

7. Good old unadulterated-love =)

Simulating conversations
My pets
Great pieces of art, the kind that speaks to your soul.

🙂

True Friendships
People who are honest

bukakke

what's that?

I goggled and wish I had not. You are bad 11th 😛


more for my list:
moonlight
bubble baths
cuddled under a blanket on a cold night/day

what it feels like



I love being snaggy under a warm blanket and my feet feel really snuggly and i rub them together

A certain gemini makes me very happy atm 🙂 —

But I'm usually happy I like the little things in life! Being lazy and watching movies, playing my videogames 😛 and reading about zi universe.

LOL eww

My animals make me happy.
Seeing friends after a period of time. (sometimes after years)

🙂

I enjoy playing basketball, walking my dog in the park, reading, writing and of course chillin at the bar after a long day of work.

Love the smell of money and the interior of my 2004 deville uh cadillacs make me very happy! Drive my deville in the open road with the windows open, cigarette in my mouth and Lightnin Hopkins blaring in the cd player.

Knowin that I'm livin every moment of my life like it gonna be my last makes me proud!

Cathedrals, churches, abstract art, baroque art, sculptures and anything that makes me think makes me happy.

Happy people!!

Great hair days! LOL
