Funny or serious replies welcome. :) For me it's getting out in nature, soaking in the beauty of the skies, trees, plants and animals. Being with a husband who shares the same feelings makes it even better. My furbabies also make me feel very good and happy, a big part of my life.

How about you? What in life makes you feel good and brings you happiness?
 

Waking up in the morning and hearing birds chirping, seeing wild animals in my yard. The wind of a northeaster, the smell of grass, when cutting the yard, the smell after a rain. The feel of misty rain on my face, the sound and smell of the ocean. The feel and smell of rich soil. The clean smell of clothes just taken off the line. Creating things for family or friends. My children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. I could go on and on....so many things make me feel so blessed and joyous.
 
Like you, SeaBreeze, I love nature, whether it's a walk in a fragrant pine forest, watching the sun sparkle on the ocean, or gazing up at a starry sky. :rose:
 

My favorite thing is the feeling & sound of a cat purring on my lap. Total nirvana.

I love creativity. I design and create one of a kind jewelry and it makes me feel good when I complete a new piece. I love home and hearth and beautiful surroundings. Arranging flowers in vases or jardineres is one of my all time favorite things to do. I love to smell cinnamon buns in the morning. I don't eat them but I like the smell of cinnamon.

Best for last - watching pets plays in piles of autumn leaves. Too cute.
 
Nature lover here as well. Walking on beaches, the sea, mountains, forest trails. My sons and granddaughters. Going for a bike ride with my husband. Sitting up in bed having breakfast with my husband and enjoying the view out of our window, boats or ships passing by, gannets diving for fish. Visiting Buddhist temples in Thailand. Listening to Scots having a blether (chat). Travel gives me a lot of joy.
 
I'll have to add some. Music. Singing. The smell of baking bread, coffee, a bakery. Ice cream. A cold beer in a beachside restaurant in Thailand. Floating in a warm swimming pool. Floating in a warm sea. Spicy food. Sunshine. Paddling a kayak.
 
I love walking down the beach, watching the birds, Sometimes just look into the really clear water to watch the tiny fish dashing about.,

At home just looking at my special begonias, gives me pleasure especially the ones I've had for many years and in some cases have been grown from a single leaf someone has given me .

Dancing a modern waltz to a special piece of music, I have chosen for our little dance we have once a week ,close to home with only one other couple.

And not forgetting the pleasure I get from taking part in the puzzles etc on the forum...I'm really glad I found you all out there all over the world it's nice to have someone out there in our own age group , to either ask a question or have a grizzle too
 
I have mentioned before I was involved with another forum and they didn't appreciate "New Members" invading THEIR forum needless to say the forum was shut down ..
 
I put a lot of stock in maintaining a reasonable level of civility with everyone I encounter during the day. I try to be courteous and take pleasure in the courtesies extended by others. Every day I take an armful of packages to the Post Office and almost without exception someone will go a little out of their way to hold the door for me. We have a lot of four way stop intersections in our town and when I arrive at a stop sign at the same time as someone else, it's always nice give the other driver a wave offering them the right of way.

My pets

Nature..


Note... I didn't say kids... lol!! Not that I don't love them... but I'm thinking of things that don't come along with angst.
