TT #4: happy

Thirteen happy “things”

I haven't been feeling very well this week, so it's time to look at what makes me happy!

  • Books - I love books! My own books, bookstores, friend's bookcases, libraries...
  • Pets - Even though it's so hard to say goodbye, pets bring so much joy to my life!
  • Friends - Having real friends who love me no-matter-what makes me feel blessed.
  • Meditation - I should really do it more often, I know it helps me.
  • My marriage - No need to explain!
  • The sea - I could never live too far from the sea, I need it close.
  • Trees - Being with trees, feeling their energy, the peace, their beauty in every season.
  • Dancing - If I'm able to surrender to it, it makes me free and happy.
  • Music - Of course Robbie, but I love a wide range of music (listening to harp music right now).
  • My computer - It's a necessity of life to me; yes, I'm addicted.
  • Shopping - Especially with a kindred spirit or all alone, not always necessary to buy things.
  • Witchy stuff - A big part of my life that most certainly adds to my happiness.
  • Daydreaming - Just snuggle comfortably and dream away...

    I love books, too! And I so get the 'surrendering part of dancing; I'm the same way.

    I'm with ya on this entire list except for the meditation and witchy stuff. Just 'cuz I don't have any witchy stuff, and I have yet to master a 'quiet/still' mind. Meditation. Yeah, yeah, yeah... how long is this gonna take. [grin]

    Thanks for stopping by my T13. Have a terrific Thursday!

  10. Good list! I've done meditation and actually enjoyed it. However I needed my friend to walk me through it. I'm not a good lone meditator if that makes sense at all!

    Happy TT!

    Really good list!! I love books too, can usually never get enough of them. And pets? I miss the ones I used to have and wish desperately I could have some now. (stupid landlord) So many of your list make me happy too, it's wonderful! :)

  13. Great idea to celebrate what makes you happy. We should all do that sometimes. Thanks for stopping by my 13!

  14. music makes me happy, as do books!

    ReplyDelete
  15. I actually agree with every single one of those... except I go down to the river not the sea. (The train out to coney island is long and honestly the beach is kind of crappy there.) I've been trying to meditate for 20 minutes a day but some days all I get is a few minutes. Makes a difference though!

    ReplyDelete
  16. That list cheered my up too! Thanks for the reminder.

    Have a great Thursday!

  17. I just love your blog and the sound of your life, what fun...

    and it is always a good idea to write a list of what makes us happy, isn't it?

    thanks for the inspiration...

  31. Nice happy things...just add my garden and you have my list. ;)

    Thanks for stopping by my garden.

    ReplyDelete
  32. that's a great list. I love the trees too, but I live in AZ, where it's more desert. Why am I here then you ask??? Family. I'd love to live up north a bit where there are green trees and green grass in front yards instead of rocks and cactus.
