Hi Everyone,
 
Just wondered if everyone has one thing in life that makes them feel happy??
 
Even if it something small, what brings you happiness?
 
My boyfriend, my 2 cats and my friends make me happy
 
Take care all

My Boyfriend, my dog, and being lazy in my bed on rainy days smurf

Good Post Victoria

Lets all try and smile some more :-)

Hi Victoria,
nothing better than seeing smiles :)
my kids make me happy,
my friends on hw make me happy,
getting through another day makes me happy,
making someone else smile makes me happy.
have a great day all,

I have to say either my bf or going out on a hike to an overlook and just sitting there in awe.

bright sunny days,

spending time with my family and friends,

helping another person feel better,

looking the best I can (i know that is terribly superficial but it does make me feel better),

music in my car especially when I working late nights,

being organized (have a problem with procrastination which I am trying very hard to overcome)

Yesterday, I was running behind schedule. I accidently locked my keys and my kids (5) in my van, got a flat tyre and still got to my appointment on time.

When things are completely crappy and then turn golden. I'm elated.

Yes, My fat, lazy, 'supposed to be a guard dog' Percy makes me happy. He's so useless. Slug is a good word.

My 4 year old who acts like a 50 year old makes me happy (he even has a shoe horn)
My wierd 2 year old.
My stubborn 'bully' baby.
and my 'make up songs that don't rhyme' husband also makes me happy.

things that make me happy:

my two crazy cats
my son (most of the time)
making someone laugh
the way the yard looks after I just cut the grass
being amongst trees

I love this thread. It made me think about the things that make me happy. Am emotion I don't get very often lately. So. here they are:

My labradoodle Brody. The cutest, smartest, biggest goofball in the world.
All the wonderful friends I have found on the boards.
My husband.(most of the time)
Water. Mainly the Chesapeke Bay but any water will do.
Did I mention my dog Brody, lol, I truely credit him with saving my life. If not for having him this last year and a half I don't think I would have been able to stamp down the urge to kill myself. It's been a tough time for me but he is my angel. scool

 I'm new here, so I hope it's okay that my first post is in this thread.
 
 What makes me happy is spending time with my family and my two cats, our goats and sheep.
 
 I also love fall and the sound of leaves crunching under my feet.

Hi all -- and welcome alexis.
 
I was just reminded of this after a message I wrote to Michelle. -- Remembering when I worked in a library makes me happy -- we had such odd queries, the top two being:
 
At #2:
"Excuse me, could you tell me where the red books are?"
?????????????!!!!! (Interestingly, a year later the library got a face-lift and different areas were colour-coded; so maybe this user just had a psychic vision of the future!)
 
At #1:
User: "I've looked up this book on the system and it told me it was L-O-S-T. Could you tell me where the L-O-S-T books are please?"
Me: "L-O-S-T? Oh, you mean 'LOST'. Um, I'm afraid they're ... lost."

yeah   yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Honestly?
Knowing that one day this physical body will be dead, 'cause there is just SO much **** that i won't have to deal with ever again.
I really look forward to that.

finding something I thought I lost, especially my mind!
good times, good fun and good food with good friends
a little bit of appreciation for my efforts.

I am new here and just saw this thread. 

What makes me very happy is a doctor who listens and really cares about my well being.
