Happiness Challenge 4.0

Chatterbox: Down to Earth

Happiness Challenge 4.0

Happiness Challenge 4.0 or something along those lines

This is I believe the fourth reboot of this thread! September originally created it. The idea is to challenge yourself to post one or more things on this thread each day that make you happy--anything at all! And after a little while we'll have a wonderfully happy thread :P

Things that make me happy:

-yellow flowers

-mugs full of lattes

-sunshine

Kayaking!! Pretty soon I leave for my grandparents' house where I get to kayak! It's my only chance every year.

Today's happiness for me is the rain. I love how it feels when I am walking outside on an ordinary, slightly cloudy day, and then, all at once, the rain starts to fall. It's so beautiful and refreshing. I also love the smell (although I can't remember the name of the smell of rain for the life of me.) It's just beautiful, especially where I live, which is a semi-desert.

- People who remember my name and spell it correctly

- People who don't feel the need to fill the calming void of silence with meaningless words

- Listening to that one song that was exactly what I needed to hear at that particular moment 

- When my room is just the right temperature for sleeping at night

- Good music in general (I probably already said this)

Today my happy thing is settling down on a couch with a good book after a hectic day. Even the best days can be tiring, and nothing beats the feeling of relaxation I get when reading an old favorite on a soft, comfortable couch.

- ice cream of any kind

-  finding cool shells on the beach and making them into necklaces. Actually, one of them is a rock and kinda heavy, but it looks cool. (picture attached)

- zoom calls with my writing camp

*sigh* my friend is moving today. That's something making me not happy.
