Happiness is ...



... a day off with no obligations to anyone or anywhere.

... a new album from one of my favorite musicians.

... tasty beers with good friends on a patio in 70-degree weather.

... sitting in a ballpark, escaping reality for nine innings (or more?).

... a win by one of my favorite sports teams, especially if it's a critical game or against one of the rival teams.

... getting lost in live music for a few hours.

... fresh flowers. Even better if they're a gift from someone.

... reading an entire book in one sitting.

.... a purring cat (or two) on my lap.

... dark roast coffee with the perfect amount of cream and cinnamon added.

... delicious food and thoughtful conversation with someone who both listens and offers valuable insights.

... a hug (or several) from someone I admire and adore.

As I’ve mentioned before, I am part of a little online blogging group where bloggers share advice, get feedback, and support each other. Once a month, we all write a post on the same topic. Below you’ll find links to all of the wonderful ladies in the group so that you can read about what happiness means to them, too. I highly encourage you to check them out- you might find some new favorite blogs!

  2. Okay, I'm totally agreeing with every single one of these things. My favorite place to be is in a stadium of ANY kind. And live music? YES PLEASE.

  6. Is there greater joy then being able to read, uninterrupted, until you have finished a book? I don't think so. A great list!

  9. I LOVE fresh flowers! I rarely buy them though because my cats always seem to eat them, but when I can get some and they last... best feeling ever.

  10. A day off with no obligations gets more rewarding the more responsibilities life gives me. Ahh how I long for one of those soon.
