I love this post so much. You hit so many things that if I copy and pasted all of the parts that I agreed with, my post would be nearly as long as yours!

I will copy a few that I really enjoyed, and can relate to!

being alive

Thanks so much for sharing :)

Thank you, happiness is when someone read my post and answered the question! :)

Me too! :)

This post was really awesome and I think it is absolutely one of the most under-valued posts on here. I'm going to randowhale upvote you :)

It's ok, I just write for myself now. But I'm happy if someone reads. :) Thanks !

I feel the same way (writing for myself and being happy if someone reads). But it's always nice to get more recognition!

I'll be reading :)

Fixing the error and running the query
The success of my students
A job well done
Making something
Learning something new
Walking in the forest
Walking in the storm
Staring at a fire

Making something
Learning something new
Staring at a fire

These make me happy too, thanks for sharing!

That is the longest list of happiness that I have ever seen.

That is one impressive list of happiness, fantastic! Hmm, for me... I don't want to totally flood your thread with a gigantic list, so I will try and choose perhaps my top three... Wow, that makes it tough actually, there are so many things that make me happy... Alright: Happiness is a book I can't put down, a woman I don't want to let go and writing a poem that makes me weep with joy and regret. Keep it up!

I love your happiness list! You are free to flood my content with what makes you happy. :)

This post has soooooo many different ideas on what a person can choose to be grateful for at this exact moment! This is a great gratitude list incase someone doesn't know what types of things they can be grateful for! Thanks girl <3 @diabolika

Thanks. No worries! :)

I do share with you all of this precious moments. we could find happiness around us every moment if we choose to. we choose whether to make our lives perfect or piece of shit. steeeem on @diabolika its an honor to have someone like you in here. bless up
