What are the little things in life that make you happy?

[Davino]

Lately I've been trying to notice those little beautiful moments in life, with a desire to appreciate them more. I have noticed this new two.

 

For my 5th year aniverary with my girl, I gifter her a ring and she gifted me a watch. I have to say that the mechanical watch is very beautiful, it is an open design and you can see every little piece moving in perfect rythm and synchronicity. Just watching it work plus the deep significance  it has, lead me to a deep appreciation every time I check the time. So wearing everyday this watch has made me a bit happier in my life.

 

I also bought for christmas a good fragrance. Each time I smell it, I feel good. It gives me this good aura of fresh delicious smell. This brief moment of breathing in the perfume, before starting the day, makes me really happy.

 

Please tell me!! What are the little things in life that make you happy?

Good food

Hot showers in the morning

Laying in bed knowing I have a lot of time to sleep and I can play around with my mind

Funny thoughts

I love having visions and when I focus for a bit I experience plenty. I fucking love it, it's like having a home cinema inside my mind, I can be so immersed and be like woooow this is so coooool

Oh true, I think I can appreciate much more the food experience. It's really a sense I could become more aware of.

I had a bothering cut the other day in one finger. Today was very much healed. I appreciated the intelligence in my body for taking care of it. This little moment made me happy and curious

How come You guys don't comment on this? Come on, I'm curious what your little things for happiness are.

Experiencing synchronicities much more frequently in my life has been really exciting. It’s an upgrade from my previous, rigid mindset

I ask myself the same question. I found it to be a very juicy thread

Btw, been having great experiences with food. Now when I prepare a salad, I smell the ingredients, go taste them in the process, being more conscious and artistic in the food -making as well as with the ingestion

I feel I have awaken to Chef Consciousness

Don't you see a bunch of miserable gripey, depressed and complaining people here. Start a thread saying what are the things in life that make you sad and we'll be all over it. C'mon no one wants to talk about what makes them happy, we like to bitch and moan and complain. Happiness is boring, we wanna gripe and feel the suffering. Hehe.

That said, while I'm thinking about it, let me go post what makes me happy before I forget what it is.

My cat, except for in the morning when she's a more pain in the ass for sleeping all night then being restless in the morning and want to go out, then in, out then in, out then in.

When I'm creating a lovely meal from scratch using the beautiful food of the earth and putting it together knowing it will nourish my body and I won't feel bloated like i do when I eat crap.

Being able to watch the birds in the morning from my room window and see them frolicking with each other and perching on the tree that looks at me naked every day.

The fact that I'm fairly healthy in body and mind and that my cravings are gone. (for now, anyway).

Being able to see the moon and the sun from my window respectively and saying hi to them on occasion.

That my life is mostly peaceful except for when this particular menace calls and I have to block them to restore my peace.

When I hear the voice of God singing when I listen to the song "The Sound of Silence" my favorite song.

Last but not least and on the top of the list - when I feel the presence of God inside me and when I feel the unconditional LOVE of the Universe and knowing that, no matter what, I'm in good hands just because I exist. 

These things make me happy, now do we have time for the menaces in society. We'll save that for when we start that thread.

A little cat door might make you very happy in life. And your cat too. 

That's not the type of party we're having over here in these neck of the woods. Not sure how those things work if they're accessible both in and out but the squirrels, racoons, possums and whatever else we have will have a feast. Oh oh! Here comes the fidgety cat starting, maybe I will just throw her out the window and move out.

Being a tree might make me happy in life..

I've had this on occasion, definitely wouldn't mind more of that.... Getting there, though.

There's nowhere to get in this instance; feel it NOW. It's you.

You could always set it up in the middle of your living room...

 

Funny 'cause I just let her out 5mins before watching this video and as soon as the video ended, I see her head peeking in the window trying to come back in. Oh my, I should have never mentioned that in my post, now I'm really gonna experience this hell hole. This is my definition of hell. Hehe

Or that! 😊

I'm right here, in mind.

As I was brushing my teeth earlier I focused on loving the soles of my feet touching the ground and the nice chill sensation it was feeling.

No, I do not have a foot fetish. 

I also wouldn’t consider my feet little, they’re fairly big.
