Default all the good things in life.

Hey all its me. I made this thread just for people to talk about things that brings you joy. Life is hard at times, but knowing we have friends to back use up and the fact we all have our differences which make use all amazing brings me joy! I know I must sound really corny but I would like to hear of somethings that gives you joy.

Not corny at all

No matter how bad I'm feeling, seeing any cute puppy dogs (by which I mean any pet dogs) always makes me smile. Not sure exactly why though lol; just does.

Looking for all the good things in life was one of the things that saved me from severe depression, and now I look for good things in life all the time!

Simple things that make me happy:
-Birds (any kind, even common ones like pidgeons)
-My cat
-most mammals and pets
-Good food/drink
-naps
-My lovely friends and family

Oh man... there are so many good things in life...

My kids
My husband
Good wine
Good food
The company of friends
Family
Cool but sunny autumn days at the cottage

The list just goes on and on.

But I'm a car guy - and my cars bring me joy. Putting the top down on a cool clear morning or on a hot summer evening is awesome. Cranking the tunes and marveling at the quality of the Bang and Olufsen stereo system. It still makes me grin with the rain sensing wipers kick in when it starts to rain! Love it.

My violin makes me so happy. I think I would be an empty person without it. Playing and practising is not a chore, it is what I do for fun in my free time. And making music and sharing it with other people is really heart warming.

My family, I have such a great family, I'm really lucky. I have parents who would do anything for me and a sister who is awesome. I couldn't ask for anything better and I wouldn't trade them for anything.
