I have been working on a list of things to be happy about for just over a year. I got the idea from the book 14,000 Things to be Happy About. I love hearing what other people have on their list, and I'm hoping to share at least 20 things a week on here.
- Waking up next to the one you love.
- The first warm, sunny day of spring.
- Getting out of the city for the weekend.
- A mother's love.
- Impromptu jam sessions.
- Laughing so hard you cry.
- The comfort you feel with a best friend.
- Realizing that it's not as bad as you thought.
- The bark of a basset hound.
- Cats that want to be cuddled.
- Brown eggs fresh from the farm.
- Feeding apples to horses.
- When someone waits and holds the door for you.
- Realizing that the sun is still shining at 7pm after a long winter.
- Staying in bed as long as possible.
- The traditions that go along with putting up the Christmas tree.
- Cookies hot from the oven.
- Baking for someone else.
- Driving along the Erie Canal.
- Being able to appreciate the history of that drive.
