Happiness

Monday 09.29.2008 02:07AM

It has been a rough time lately, for myself and some people in my life, so I have been working on a list of some things that make me happy.

  • Connecting people
  • Camp fires
  • Road trips
  • Snow
  • Thunderstorms
  • Hot tea
  • Spending quality time
  • Going to concerts
  • Naps
  • Random text messages of love and support
  • Getting fun(ny) nicknames, like “hh gRegor”, “gRegorLove Stallion”, “Hyde”, etc.
  • Christmastime
  • Seeing old friends at Christmas Eve Brunch
  • Making people laugh
  • Writing real letters (and receiving them)
  • Good food with good friends
  • The Tridumbvirate
  • When people humor me about being such a “ladies man”
  • Surprise parties
  • Hugs
  • Swinging (playground swings and front-porch-style bench swings)
  • Recurring silly jokes and references among friends
  • Arriving at Cornerstone Festival
  • Alan's laugh
  • Staying up all hours of the night with friends until slaphappy
  • Seeing loved ones be truly happy
  • California
  • Driving with the windows down on a sunny day or cool night
  • Remembering how much people believe in me
  • Remembering I survived

Obviously that is not everything, but I think it is a good start.

What makes you happy?
