What Makes You Happy?

I asked this question to nearly everyone in my contacts and these are the responses I got (I won't add names just for the privacy of certain people.)

Music, writing, the energy within the universe

Nature. and good food

Guitar and my best friend when we don't fight.

I don't know anymore. How about you?

Hmm. . . I'd have to say, visiting my family that I haven't seen in a while, or going out with my friends. Mainly just knowing all the people I know makes me happy. Is this a test? Lol

My family and friends! What about you? What makes you happy?

The gosple and learning the truth of the restored gosple, and having the spirit all the time. Why do you ask.

Chris and Brooklyn make me happy. Peanut butter makes me happy. Chocolate makes me happy. Working out at the gym. I have to make up for all that chocolate and peanut butter. Thats pretty much my life.

And being with my hubby :)

Well rounded life. Many things involved in that happiness. Joy!

Lots of things

I guess lots of things like a drop in temperature when its been hot for a while. Over cast days. Rain. Relaxing. Knowing I have a long life ahead of me to progress though. These are just some things. I guess

Everything! Haha :) that's a broad question, love

Hmmmm. . . I would have to say chocolate ice cream :-)

Good music. Playing the piano. Cuddling with my boyfriend. Eating chocolate. Learning something new, especially when it's related to things I'm really interested. in like web design and music.

Thats a good question. Being around people I love, doing the things that we both enjoy. Amaing music. Making things. Doing a good job. Making the right choice. Laughing

Lots of stuff. May I ask who this is?

Pain killers

Getting random texts from good friends :) And, of course, my religion. What makes you happy?

Food. Wait, is that a serious question?

Why do you ask? You make me pretty darn happy, if that counts. :) Umm. . . I'm usually somewhat happy. I mean, you know I don't mind getting woken up, even during the night. I'm like that all throughout the day. But . . . Having a productive day, even though I can be sorta lazy sometimes. Learning something new, as long as it interest me. Watching marvels of engineering at work. Music and art. The sound of water/rain. Kids, lol. Getting texts and calls from my amazing girlfriend ;). Laughing, especially with friends. Driving when I don't necessarily need to be somewhere on time. Sorry, this text got big fast! Haha :) but the list goes on and on!

There's a million dollar question . . . so to speak.

Me and the people i love choosing the right.

Kindness and babies

Leslie makes me happy

That is a vague question. So your vague answer is Happiness

Food, sleep and friends.

Hey emily, u remember u asked me the other day what makes me happy. I was worried about taking my national exam which I didn't pass, so I was trying to remind myself of what made me happy. The answer? The fact that their are second chances in everyday life. I can study and retake my test, I can reach out to the quiet shy young adult at church, I can look into other career paths that will fulfill my professional needs. Ultimately out of the things I mentions and those common things that is the great gift, which goes into the lords teachings.

A lot of people asked me what makes me happy. I will try to say something about that. The gospel makes me immensely happy. Knowing I have a testimony. My Father in heaven loves me. My family loves me and I love them. Pursuing my interest like music and art. Giving a good massage and knowing someone feels better because of the work I can do. Making other people happy. Service. Reading a good book. Finishing a project. Trying to be my best self. Surprises. Being close to someone. Going for walks. Work, play, sleep. Good food. Paychecks. Getting out of debt. When people call or text me first. Life makes me happy. With all its ups and downs and stresses, it is quite an adventure. I'm grateful for all of it. Even if I don't feel that way all the time.

Improvement On the Mind

After Christmas, The company that the company I work for works for decided to cancel the product that I do customer support for (which is a loan product). So, naturally, it has been pretty slow. During all the free time I have in between calls, I've been reading books. This is what I have read in the last month or so.
Hunger Games (all three books)
Book of a Thousand Days
Princess Academy
Sense and Sensibility
Pride and Prejudice
How to Hug a Porcupine (still in progress. About half way through)
I also enjoy making up stories about vampires, werewolves and aliens (all in one story) over IM with my coworker, Pratt, playing cards, drawing pictures on paint, listening to other peoples conversations about their love lives, taking kids to the doctors, surgeries, etc., having card readings done, and any other random things we can come up with to entertain ourselves while being tethered to a phone, and taking naps that cause me to wake up in pain from sleeping in a swivel chair. This is what my life consists of from 6:00 am to 1:00 pm every day.
