Little Joys of Life

Burning a candle with a lovely scent.

When you hear one of your favorite songs play on the radio at the store.

Getting to the end of the day and realizing you actually had a pretty productive day and accomplished most of what you set out to do.

Discovering you weren’t as dumb (or forgetful) as you thought you were.

Stumbling across something hilarious and unexpected on the internet that still makes you smile when you think about it two days later.

A long walk with a friend.

Finding something you were planning on buying on sale.

Waking up at your normal time and realizing it’s the weekend, so you don’t have to get up.

Discovering (or rediscovering) a new passion, interest, hobby, or love.

Creating something. Anything from a smile to a piece of art to a haven to whatever it is you enjoy creating.

Something that inspires you and leaves you pondering and thinking about it days or weeks later.

That “aha!” moment when something finally clicks.

Finally beating that level or game or problem that you’ve been working on for hours.
