Things To Be Happy About

I'm happy that I don't feel the need to lie about anything.

Some people lie about their education. Some people lie about what they did for a living. Some people lie about who they're friends with. Some people's beliefs and outlook on life are based on lies. Some people promote lies to further a political agenda.

I don't have any delusions about what I am and what my life has been, but at least I don't feel the need to lie about anything. I tried, and perhaps I haven't have the success I should have, but at least I tried. I guess if I didn't even bother to try to succeed in life, I might lie, also, to feel like I was a part of something bigger, even if that is the worldwide community of liars.

Things I am happy about is when receiving a genuine compliment
from someone, and also when I extend a genuine compliment to
another, this is something I am happy about..

I am happy that I helped a very kind person today when she needed
it the most.

I am happy about sunshine and when it beams through cloudy
skies, like it did today, it felt so refreshing to my mind and body.
 
~Talking with family and friends, better yet... getting hugs from them.
~Having faith.
~ Walking by the waterfront (ocean or river) then sitting down to relax.
~Watching boats go by from our timeshare window or balcony.
~Listening to my favorite music and sometimes maybe dancing a little.
~Losing myself in my favorite T.V. shows
~Playing with our kitten (and watching her play solo).
~Shopping, shopping and more shopping.
~Reading and learning from interesting threads on Senior Forum.
 
I am very happy to have my bunny rabbit! Also that my son lives a couple blocks away so I see him daily. I am happy to have my friends, my apartment, to be within walking distance of parks and businesses that I need to go to, to have a mobility chair when I am unable to walk, my computer, to have this forum to interact with a wonderful group of online friends. Food! I am very happy to have food and have the ability to cook and prepare food that I like. In fact, I am happy about a lot of things.
