For the first time in a long while, I slept through the night. I didn’t wake up as rested as I would have liked, but I felt happy – lighter than I usually do. Maybe it’s because I spoke a lot about my family yesterday. I don’t know. And I don’t want to overthink. Here is a list, I wrote spontaneously, with things that make me happy. Would you do me a favour? In the comments, share one or more things that make you happy. Let’s spread some positivity.
- Sunrise
- Standing in the blowing wind
- The smell of rain
- A dish that turned out particularly well
- Receiving mail – personal mail (emails too)
- Looking at my books and flipping through them
- Listening to music, singing and dancing along
- A good book – with a story that is gripping
- A memory that was almost forgotten and puts a smile on my face
- Seeing myself through the eyes of others
- Sleeping through the night without interruption
- Seeing people I like being happy
- Being good at my job
- Hearing a song that touches the right spaces inside of me for the first time
- Driving with the windows down
- Seeing plants grow
- Rainbows and soap bubbles
- A long bath
- Feeling loved
- That look in the eyes of my kids – between awe and she’s crazy
- Cloud watching
- Waking up and writing a list of things that make me happy…
Now it’s your turn… What makes you happy or feel light.

Puppy kisses!!

When my cat jumps onto my lap and falls asleep there; When a major artist acknowledges one of my tweets or posts about them; A rainy day in the Coachella Valley where I live (it seldom rains).
