--Waking up early enough in the morning that you get to glimpse the sunrise and watch as the sky changes color
--Walking outside in the fresh air
--The scent of rain
--Storms; being inside while it's storming outside and just listening to the rushing of rain
--Rock-climbing and reaching the very top; feeling your muscles scream but you?re still determined to finish
--Looking up at the night sky and pointing out constellations among the stars
--Meeting new people
--Laughing so hard that your stomach hurts
--Seeing other people laugh with you
--Feeling your heart warm when you get to know someone
--Hugs
--Hot cocoa when it?s snowing outside
--Watching the snow fall
--Curling up with blankets and a good book while it's storming outside
--Taking walks at night and looking out across the lake
--Hearing others say your name like they like to say it
--Music
For me, it has to be the start of a new day, week or month even. I love the feeling of a fresh start! The change of seasons fill me with excitement too.
- the sound of rain pattering on the roof
- thunderstorms
- when the leaves on trees begin to change color during autumn
- starting a new book
- when someone cooks/bakes something for me
- hugs/cuddling/holding hands
- when someone plays with my hair
- finding seashells on the beach
- the sound of waves crashing against the shore
- listening to someone play a pretty instrument
- coming home to my dogs
- making someone laugh
- seeing my friends happy
- sunrises
today i went out with a friend of mine to go pokemon and i had a backpack on and i asked him to take out my coke bottle from my bag and he put my hair to one side and took it out and i was like what r u doing m8 just zip my hair in the bag or something and he put his hands on my shoulders and shook me and said " christine i genuinely care about you and about your hair care. i'm pretty sure other people do to, so please stop putting yourself behind what you do for others" and i was like wow, that's new, people actually care about me and notice me ! idk i just thought it was interesting.
i reposted it from the random thoughts thread, just because that moment in my life i actually was happy to be alive
