Somebody once told me that you should do something that makes you happy every day and I feel like its a good philosophy. Here is a random list of things that make me happy on a semi regular basis in no particular order.
-The smell of warm bread/toast- the weather (rain, snow and sunshine in particular)- Greek style yogurt- dancing- running- chips and salsa- laughing- cuddling in warm blankets- singing on the top of my lungs with the windows of my car rolled down- blood- comfortable old jeans- light up little boy shoes- ballet flats- swimming- the puffs of condensation that form when its really cold outside- The smell of wood- the smooth feel of my teeth after I've brushed them- getting lost in a book- having a really good conversation with someone you care about- my pet fish- naps on the couch or in the sunshine- the quiet- the same quiet filled with good music- jujitsu- snowboarding- wearing my favorite fragrance just so I can smell my wrists- stretching- playing the piano- fruit smoothies- the stars- walking barefoot in the grass- puddle jumping- playing with kids- smiling- week off- puzzles- solitaire- cooking- the smell of clean laundry- ribbons or flowers in my hair- fun earrings- the smell of old books- realizing you've learned something you didn't think you were all that good at- frisbee- flowers- really nice pens at work- sliding across the floor- photo albums and pictures in general- trees- mountains- my winter coat- holding a warm mug of something- spider webs (not located in the house)- candles- skype- facebook- phonecalls from a friend- friends- family- the gospel (and all aspects of it)
This is just a shallow look at some of the things that brighten my day. I hope you can see all of the awesome things God has blessed you with and be happy about something every day because really, this world is spectacular.
my favorite on you list may be "blood"
