Happiness in something so small

To be happy is to enjoy the little things around you.

I'm easily pleased and easily entertained. Most people would agree with me on that. Some of the smallest things in life can make me so happy...in no particular order...

1. Hammocks
2. Depth...like how big the sky is or how wide the ocean is
3. The feeling you get when you stretch after a really good sleep
4. Hugs that make you feel little
5. Cuddling
6. Watching Friends (this show just cracks me up. I really want to be like them with friends like them when I'm 30)
7. A genuine smile from someone that's happy to see you
8. Fun socks, especially fuzzy or toe socks
9. One Tree Hill (I just love this show. It's funny and cute but deep all at the same time...perfect)
10. Crazy Bread from Little Caesars
11. How cuddly a teddy bear is
12. When someone can look at me and seem to know exactly what I need at that moment
13. The words I love you (laugh, mhm say it's cheesy. But who doesn't love being told they are loved?? I mean three simple words can just make me smile and make my day. And if you are that special someone saying it, it can make me dance around all goofy)
14. Blogging (It's totally therapeutic)
15. Kindness (nothing bad can come from kindness. Even just simple acts, like a smile or holding open the door)

And of course those are just the little things that can easily be taken for granted. But there's the big ones too. Like family and friends and all the things they do for you, including putting up with you when you can be crazy and out of control or even depressed and a bore to be around.

So many reasons to be happy in this world...sometimes I think people forget that, which is just sad.
