We all have a bad day sometimes. We all feel sad sometimes. It's natural. But sadness should be temporary. Life is so much better when your spirits are lifted. The sun shines a little brighter, food tastes a little better, you laugh a little harder. There are so many small things we very easily overlook, especially if we're sad. So if you're feeling down, look at this list. Maybe not all of these particular things make you happy, but I'm sure at least a couple will resonate.
