The simplest things in life are the best things of all.
My simple bits of happiness (not necessarily in this order):
my kitty cat
the pureness of nature
thunderstorms
being passionate
compassion
being in the forest
torrential downpours
sunny mornings
rainy mornings on the weekends
observing
waking up early without any obligations for the day
the smell of coffee when I wake up
the sound of the rain forest
receiving a smile from a complete stranger for no reason
free spirits
mango
the ocean
the sound of waves crashing into the sand
the smell of redwoods
long hikes
soul mates
the night sky
my tattoos
discovering an amazing new song, and then listening to it on repeat until I discover another song
languages
becoming bilingual
trying new foods
lilies
love
culture
good hugs
setting goals
accomplishing goals
my bed
the smell of lemongrass
challenging my mind
Eat, Pray, Love
hearing someone from Italy speak Italian
maps
new experiences
chocolate
sending and receiving positive vibes
deep intellectual conversations
coconut
the color green (in between pear green and olive green, especially)
smiling for no specific reason
....the small things are the most important. We often forget about the importance of simplicity when we get caught up in our monotonous routines of work, school, family, etc. Remind yourself from time to time what makes you most happy. Then ask yourself, "when is the last time I experienced this?" If you can't remember, maybe it's time to take a break and LIVE.
