RikerChick 5 Posted October 12, 2008 Ok, my life is so stressful lately it's almost comical (except really not funny ) and I'm sure I'm not the only one. It seems there's a lot of people who are stressed out or depressed or lonely or what have you. So instead of thinking about the crappy things in life this thread is for focusing on the good things that bring us happiness. Doesn't have to be big, in fact the little things often bring a lot of happiness. BTW, let's keep this clean. We all know about the more "adult" happinesses, no need to go into those here. I'll start... Happiness is a purring cat on your lap. Who's next? First person to say "I can't think of anything" gets a virtual butt kicking from yours truly.

Theunicornhunter 2 Posted October 12, 2008 When I was a teenager - and suffering teen angst and all that stuff I came across one of those machines that for a penny would give you your weight and tell your fortune (answer a question) The question I chose was "Where will I find happiness?" The answer - under H in the dictionary - it didn't mean to be profound but I have never forgotten the lesson I learned that day. One place I do find happiness is working in my garden Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
