Eva Laperle 7898 Report post Posted February 5, 2015 Ladies and gentlemen, I'm sure this thread is nothing new but... Seeing so many fellow friends posting about loneliness and depression, I'm feeling lots of people are having the "blues" lately. So, I thought about bringing some positiveness in the atmosphere (like we say in french lol). So guys, what makes you happy ? Simple things, little things, random things.... Please share and let's spread more smiles and happiness around us :) Personally, I enjoy small things that always put a smile on my face like making other people happy, good time with friends, spending time with my dog, mountain retreats, funny movies, eating chocolate (lol), laughing, drawing/sketching, feeling the support of loved ones... and smiling, always ! What about you ? On this note, have a great, happy day ! ;) Eva xox 11 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CristyCurves 169032 Report post Posted February 5, 2015 Nothing can bring a smile to my face any quicker than a dog, they are pure joy in a hairy package:) Soulfully speaking, being loved is the real meaning of happiness for me and I'm sure for many. When you know you are truly loved by someone then it's hard not to be happy. Laughter as well, I was at the gym yesterday and a couple of girls were laughing hysterically at something on their phone, the laughter was contagious, it made me happy. It is easy to find, smile, say something nice to someone, or do someone a favor. I guarantee in those you'll find happiness:) Or eat something yummy, food brings me happiness, lots of food:) 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Helena D'Orville 33237 Report post Posted February 5, 2015 I am happy each time I see my friends for a coffee/lunch/supper, talking and laughing with them. I love going for a day trip - or a weekend trip - to discover new places, accompanied by friend(s); and I love SPAs, enjoying the healing and appeasing virtues of water, swimming, the heat of a sauna is like a warm blanket, receiving a good massage. Being touched always makes me melt... 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Luckyme 41401 Report post Posted February 5, 2015 There are many things that can make me happy. Off hand, I could think of in this hobby - when I see my favorite cerb ladies - when I give them a sensual massage and other treatment, and they say, baby, I love you and I love the way you please me - when my cerb ladies pamper me - when I receive a lovely message or email telling me they look forward to seeing me outside of this hobby - when I am cruising down a ski slope - when I am skating on the canal on a sunny day with my favorite lady - when I see a puppy running to me, kissing my face and then lying down for a tummy rub - when a cat rubs his/her body against my foot and meows softly 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oldblueeyez 15475 Report post Posted February 5, 2015 For me, about February-time is when winter starts losing its charm, so looking at Eva's latest pics made me very happy! I don't know which is more enticing, the subject or the location! Ultimately, what makes me happy is freedom, as much freedom as I can squeeze from this increasingly clutching world. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MightyPen 67414 Report post Posted February 5, 2015 Dogs!! In this I'm just like Cristy. Dogs are awesome little bundles of liveliness, affection, alertness, curiosity, devotion, and even forgiveness. I love my own dogs, and meeting (most) new dogs. And on a cold winter's afternoon or evening, they also force me to go outside for a walk when I might otherwise stay in -- which I'm sometimes grumpy about when preparing, but never regret once I'm out there. Which is the other thing that make me happy: a brisk Canadian winter's day (provided you're dressed for it) on a path through the woods with fresh snow all around. And especially that moment when you appreciate not being stuck in a home or office, preoccupied and away from the world, with your head in a computer screen... and instead take a long, deep breath of real fresh air. Joy! 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WhiteKnight 1413 Report post Posted February 6, 2015 What makes me happy? Many things! On top of my list is during social dancing, when I ask a girl to dance and her shy smile transforms itself in joyful, happy laughters as we dance :) 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Winnipegcub 21293 Report post Posted February 6, 2015 Well to start with and for those who know me I'm extremely positive. But what really brings a smile to my face. Well so many things but I'll rattle off a quick couple: - spending time with a special lady. - good single malt. - little babies laughing and actually maternity wards. - the human touch (actually stimulating all 5 senses) - forest and mountains. - sleeping and hearing the ocean waves. - fireplace - good cigar - most pets but especially dogs and cats. - travelling - learning Ok that's probably enough.

Nicolette Vaughn 294340 Report post Posted February 10, 2015 Waking up above ground everyday and just being fortunate and appreciate a lot of things I have that other people may not. Watching a beautiful view like the sun rising right out my bathroom window. Being fortunate to have has one huge bath tub that I could technically fit three people in there if I wanted to. Just being able to light a few candles at the end of the day and read my book book in a nice hot bubble bath in peace. Spending time with my cat Watching the Harvey Specter character on Suits! Oh and remember those Good Humor strawberry shortcake ice cream on a stick? Ya! Just seeing those again at a store after many years of not having one made me happy! I should have bought one! Knowing that *I* have the ability to be able to do whatever I want because I believe that I can. Happiness to me is being content wherever I am at any given moment. Happiness is being able to control how I think and feel in certain situations. Happiness starts with self love. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mambo35 306 Report post Posted February 10, 2015 Like Cristycurves and Mightypen, I love dogs. There is something about them that just warms my heart. Social dancing is also makes me happy, WhiteKnight describe it better than I ever could. Being outside during a snowfall is pure bliss. Watching someone's reaction as they open a gift. A hug. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EmilyRushton 253377 Report post Posted February 11, 2015 Coming home from a trip and being greeted by my Siamese cat, nothing like his blue eyes and purrs to bring a smile to my face.

Here are some things that make me happy: Lying out/stretching out on a hard floor after a run Warm shower with lavendar body wash and applying lavendar body lotion right before bed Going for a run! Travel of any kind (even if it's just a short road trip to a friend's house just outside of the city) Coffee in the AM (actually coffee any time) Tea with a friend Dancing around my apartment with my earphones in and drinking wine (serious stress reliever...aside from other certain stress relieving activities lol) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
