There are so many little reasons to be happy. They may be things that are so simple that you haven't even thought of them. They might just be little everyday things to you, to some people they might be what keeps them going or what gets them through the day. So if you are ever feeling down, or just in need of a smile, here's a list of reasons to keep on smiling.
1. Listening to your favorite song in the car at full volume.
2. A beautiful sunset or sunrise.
3. The way it looks when you pour milk into coffee or tea.
4. The sound of a baby laughing.
5. The sizzling sound that a frying pan makes when it is heating up.
6. When your friends pet "chooses" to sit on your lap.
7. Getting the perfect peanut butter too jelly ratio. Something so simply, yet so hard to do.
8. Buying new school/office supplies.
9. Finding money in your pocket/ old bag/ old wallet.
10. Pizza. Enough said.
11. Being able to sing all the words to a song you haven't heard in years.
12. Eating your favorite meal.
13. When your bra and underwear match. Something that will make you feel like you can conquer the world.
14. A hug, a real genuine hug.
15. Crawling into bed after you just changed/washed your sheets.
16. Sleeping in your own bed after a long trip.
17. Receiving a GOOD unexpected text from someone.
18. Making the perfect cup of coffee.
19. Sitting in the kitchen at 4 in the morning talking about anything and everything with your best friend.
20. Holding hands, one of the most under appreciated things in the world.
21. Being reminded that you are loved.
There are few things that compare to a beautiful sunset, the sounds of a baby laughing, a tight hug, holding someones hand, late night conversations, and hearing someone tell you that they love you(even if you know that they do, it is always nice to be reminded).
I know that this list may seem simple. Some of these things might even seem a little silly. But you would be lying to me and to yourself if you said that you did not crack a smile at least once while reading this list. I hope that you were able to take away something from reading this list, or you were able to come up with your own list of simple things that make you happy.
