Sometimes it’s the simplest things that make us feel as if we can conquer the world, like…
1. Belly-aching, suffocating laughter with your best friend.
You know the kind where you can’t say a thing, your mouth is wide open and you’re clapping like a seal?
2. Catching the smile of your significant other.
Every time they smile, you can’t help but fall even more in love with them.
3. The first snowfall.
Even if you hate winter, you can’t deny its beauty.
4. A good night’s rest.
Waking up not feeling sleepy? It’s almost unheard of, but it’s so refreshing.
5. Your pet actually coming to you, instead of you forcing your love on it.
Is anyone else’s idea of loving their pet to hold them tightly while whispering, “I love you” as they growl?
6. A refreshing drink of ice cold water.
Especially when you’re really thirsty after running a marathon… Or maybe just when you’re really thirsty.
7. Getting an A.
Whether or not you studied for hours on end or put it into the hands of the guessing game, getting an A on a paper, test, or assignment is a huge relief.
8. Your favorite song playing on the radio after a bad day.
Bad days are no fun, but something about hearing the beautiful voice of Chris Young or an upbeat song by Beyoncé turns one’s mood around in seconds.
9. Checking off your to-do list.
Why is it that a simple checkmark makes you feel so much more put together?
10. Perfecting your eyeliner.
Or just having a good make-up or hair day in general is good too.
11. Manly hugs.
Falling into the arms of someone you love always makes you feel warm and fuzzy inside.
12. A word of encouragement.
It’s nice to feel appreciated or to know that others care enough to put you in their prayers.
13. Finding money in your pocket.
It may be a dime, five bucks, or 20, but you’re still that much richer.
14. Someone paying for your food in front of you in the drive-thru.
Bless their heart.
15. Clean bedding.
Falling asleep to the smell of fabric softener is for sure going lead to fairytale dreams, and if you’re a girl…clean sheets and shaved legs is almost as relaxing as a spa day. Am I right ladies?
I’ve learned to appreciate all these things as I’ve grown up and there are a million more I could add. What are some of your best feelings that just can’t be beat?
