Happiness of Life

WHAT MAKES ME HAPPY ... Having a hug - whether it is good times or bad Allowing myself some free time to do what I want to do Perfecting a poem to post on poetry soup Planting seeds and watching them grow into beautiful flowers Invitations to a special event such as a recent wedding we attended Not having to get up early at the weekends! Eating at my favourite restaurant with special friends Seeing my son flourish at University Spending time with family and friends Off on holiday to distant shores Feeling the sun on my skin Lying back in a relaxing bubble bath at the end of a busy day Indulging in a box of my favourite chocolates … mmmm Finding out my husband’s cancer was cured – best day ever Every morning I wake up to face a new day – that sure makes me happy!!!
