What things make you happy?

Everyday I will try to post a list of things to be happy about. Some are my own ideas and some are from this book I picked up somewhere and decided to borrow because it made me so happy reading it. I want to share these happy thoughts with others and whoever reads this. There are many things, simple things, tiny things, that we many times overlook, but can actually make us happy. "Words, and the images they create, can be a great source of pleasure and inspiration."

• pajamas at breakfast
• seeing the moon rise
• the feel of a rug under bare feet
• the "snuggle right in" feeling
• a lake catching the last flecks of sunlight coming in over the pines
• shadows cast by shutters against shiny white walls
• moderation
• starting to make things happen
• a baby's first tooth
• headphones

I'm quitting my current job right now. No more working with little kids. Although I love little kids and love spending time with them. Sometimes enough is enough and I need to move onto new things. I feel bad but I am guilty of having favorites hehehe. Some annoy the hell out of me, while others I want to bring them to the playground or go on a picnic with. After I quit this job, in two weeks I'll be working in the city this summer :) That will be fun. I'll be working full time from Monday to Friday. oy. The trip to the city back and forth will be a pain, but it's okay, I can deal with it. We'll see we'll see. I'll be making alot more money than I am right now with my current job, so I got nothing to complain about so far :] Okay, done for tonight. Have a great weekend! :)

Don't Worry, Be Happy

by Bob Marley

Here's a little song I wrote
You might want to sing it note for note
Don't worry be happy

Every life we have some trouble
When you worry you make it double
Don't worry be happy
Don't worry be happy now
Don't worry be happy

Aint got no place to lay your head
Somebody came and took your bed
Don't worry be happy

The landlord say your rent is late
He may have to litigate
Don't worry be happy
(Look at me I'm happy)

Don't worry be happy
(I give you my phone number
when you worry call me I'll make you happy)
Don't worry be happy

Aint got no cash aint got no style
Aint got no gal to make you smile
But dont worry be happy

Cos when you're worried your face will frown
And that will bring everybody down
So don't worry be happy
Don't worry be happy now
Don't worry be happy

(Don't worry Dont worry don't do it
Be happy
Put a smile on your face
Don't bring evrybody down like this
Don't worry it will soon pass
Whatever it is
Don't worry be happy)
(I'm not worried)

Ahh I love bob marley and this song. This is my new motto these days. Seriously, if you think happy, then you feel happy. If you think positive, good things will come to you :) Most importantly, if you are happy, then you are beautiful. I heard somewhere that for every minute you laugh/smile each day, you live for eight more days. Now whether that's completely true or not, just smile! Laugh! Make those happy wrinkles :)
