My mom and I were talking today and began to define happiness. This made me think about other people and wonder what makes them happy. So this post is for you to share what little everyday things you enjoy.


Happiness is...

Happiness is.....

A rainy day that I can spend reading in bed

Watching my kids succeed in something they are jazzed about

Hearing from special friends

Watching my dog chase her tail

Time on the farm

Sunsets but not moonrises (they ache too much)

Hot BBQ Chicken wings

A good movie

Great music

Chicken herder (inside joke)

Watching the absolute proof of ghosts video ghost.gif

Stimulating conversation

Tender touches

A car that starts in the wintertime

A warm home on a winter day and an air conditioned one in the summer

Low humidity!

A day with no whining

A full iced tea jug and plenty of fresh lemmon

Dr. Pepper beer_mug.gif

My book getting published (oops... went into the realm of ecstatic fantasy)

The awesome people I've met here smile.gif

Do I have to stop?

More happiness...

Getting to see my friend Nathan, who works in Virginia Beach. He and I are the closest thing each other has to a brother...

Singing along to good songs on the radio in the car (especially pre-"Black Album" Metallica)...

Seeing the friendly faces at my Twelve Step meetings...

The stimulating music and awesome, if sometimes spirited, discussions here at CelticRadio...

Eating a really good Italian beef sandwich and french fries...

Hearing my favorite phrase in sports: "...for a WHITE SOX WINNER!!!"...

O'siyo,
Happiness is:
~Wearing my favourite, big, fuzzy sweatshirt while sitting on the beach at night feeling the waves run over my feet rolleyes.gif
~Watching/listening to someone laugh uncontrollably because of something funny I shared::lol
~Feeling my nose and cheeks freeze as I ride my Harley on a cool, crisp Autumn eve thumbup.gif
~Realising every day just how truly blessed I am yes.gif
~'Talking' to the animals phone1.gif
~~Sty-U red_bandana.gif

Happiness i so much a matter of perception. Often times we (as individuals) forget what truly makes us happy. We tend to think in terms of large things:cars, money, world domination...
Its my opinion that happiness is ,really, in the small things.

watching lightning dance across the sky and having your son there who is in complete awe.

I hug from my boy..
the smile when my son sees me
an I love you from my son
My boy laying on my chest and telling me good morning
My son

Waking up next to the one you love
Groggy kisses with morning breath first thing in the morning
Snuggling with the one you love
those quiet moments when neither of you have to say anythign but a million words are conveyed with but a glance and a smile
The emotion that comes with a single touch of a hand .
the feel of warm breath on skin during an embrace
...enough of that...sorry unsure.gif

sunsets
sunrises
sitting in a field and getting to the point where you can hear the music being made by all of natures things. where the brook, the wind and the russle of the grass sings to you

finishing a story that I am happy with(doesnt happen often)

firends
comrades
loved ones
the respect of them

being able to be happy

looking into my soul and seeing a glimpse of the beauty everyone else sees...its fleeting but its there.


anyway..I ramble

Seeing someone honestly enjoy something I've done.
Good music
The flow of a stream to the page
a laughing brook
a good rain
walking in the woods
walking at night
talking with friends about everything and nothing
Water (I so long to walk a beach alone at night, but it's so far away)
A freshly fallen blanket of snow
remembering an interesting dream
and most recently: finally meeting someone who has been looking forward to seeing you as much as you've been looking forward to seeing them (enough to spend quite a bit of money and time for it)

Happiness is discovering that the stranger beside you is a friend you just haven't met yet.

That and a pint of Bushey's bitter, birddog will know what I'm talking about, for those who don't

krm,

The words are empty unless they are really meant.

Too many time have 'I love you' been said just to get what you want

The words 'Ilove YOU' should be said only once, that is to the person they are meant, after that the words become meaningless.
