The list of happiness

Recently I found this link: 101 ways to boost happiness. And I found it useful as a reminder that we all can find happiness even in the smallest things. A great article to make you be grateful about life. These are some ways, taken from the post, that I think are relevant with my life:


My list of happiness:

Listening to my favorite music
Good chocolate
Inside jokes
Getting a call or email from someone I love out of the blue
Lying in bed listening to the rain
Fresh bed sheets
Helping someone in need
Checking something off my to-do list
A great book
An afternoon nap
My favorite movie
Not having to be anywhere
Getting a giant hug just when I need it
A long conversation with a favorite friend
The rare perfect errand day
A foot massage
Hot chocolate on a cold day
A good hair day
The season premiere of my favorite show
A chocolate ice cream cone
When someone lets me know they're thinking of me
Hearing an old song I used to love
City lights at night


So, from now on, everytime I'm feeling blue I will just have some chocolate, hot choco, or ice cream. Another options are to listen to the music, take a nap, have a foot massage, or reading the list.

When you look at the big picture, life is simple, isn't it?
