What Made You Happy Today?

[Fundy Gemini]

Hi everyone -

I was looking for the appropriate place to share a video that made me happy, and hopeful about humanity that I stumbled upon today. I realized, there doesn't seem to be such a thread - and just like the mainstream news - when all you get is the negative, you forget to appreciate the positive.

I would love to check in daily to see something what made you smile today, or brought you some form of peace or happiness etc. I guess this is a bit off-topic as such, but in another way, it's really the point

So share your happy thought or moment with all of us ♥
I'll begin with the next post -

So - today I am thrilled to share with you this video that made my day and gave me hope

It's sunday for me, so I have the day off. That in itself is enough to make me happy, but what I really like to do is to take a nap. For me, (lazy person that I am), one of life's pleasures, and which brings a smile to my face, is just taking a nap. If it's sunny and warm, I'll nap out in the sun. If it's cold or rainy, I'll curl up in a warm blanket and nap on the couch. But nap I will!! So, that's what made me happy today.

Today it was a delicious bowl of chicken soup.

I spent the afternoon playing outside with my grandson. That always makes me happy!

Thank you all for sharing!
I relate with them all and so happy to share a bit of your "happy vibes" :D

Well, this may sound silly, but i did the hoovering around the house, then I did the laundry,
and I felt happy...does that make me a saddo?

Also, I like Abraham Lincoln's quote...
' People are about as happy as they decide to be.'

Great thread Fundy Gemini..keep 'em coming!

What made me happy.....well let me think about that.

I woke up breathing, and that's gets every day off to a good start.

Got a friends request from lettherebelight. How's that? Making a new friend always makes me happy!

Oh, and a couple of PM's from a dear friend. You can't beat that!

Stirred the pot on the "Here and Now" thread. Always good for a laugh

Fed the birds outside my office. They were quite happy, and so was I.

The expectation of returning home this evening after twelve days away with work.

That'll do.......as I could ramble on for hours!

There are always things to be happy about.

haha lettherebelight - no way that makes you a "saddo" it makes you industrious!
I personally LOVE hanging the clothes on the line, and smelling how fresh and clean they are when I take them down -
it's all about appreciating the simple pleasures in life (and a good cup of coffee!!)

Knowing that there is something more coming and that we are all a part of it, not looking at the negative changes but the positve ones

Was just standing outside taking in the night sky, stars the moon shining through as the clouds momentarily break from the storm and in the forefront of the sky I saw the silhouette of a winged One, some people call them angels, that took my breath away.

Ofra, as per usual.

Woke up and built a warm cozy fire in the wood stove. Watched 3 deer meander across the back yard. Went to pick up my 14month old grand daughter Nella to watch her while my daughter works. She is a delightful soul, full of charm and humor. Fed her breakfast (all organic) she is eating very healthy foods! Then put her down for a nap and I am taking a break. So far I have a happy heart! Hope everyone here has the same!

It's a beautiful sunny and warm November day, which is quite unusual in my area. Spent some quiet time outside in the sun with my two cats, then had a surprise visit from my daughter, then saw Koko tickling Robin Williams (on another thread from TheOne), then this awesome version of Kashmir by Lord Sidious' Goddess.

Can it get better than this ? (of course it can...)

Peace to All

This video made my day today. It starts off with still pictures but the video is amazing.

Thanks for starting this thread, Fundy, and for the heartwarming video you opened it with. The mama cow must've been so happy to have her baby back, and the calf must've been relieved to be back, safe at home. (And excited to tell its' friends about the motorcycle ride it experienced, too! )

Funny, I was just thinking some moments ago that, with so much doom and gloom news around as of late, it'd be great to have a positive, sunlight-in-your soul, sweet news thread around. I was just going to start one when I bumped into yours; am smiling at the synchronicity!

And, as if that coincidence wasn't enough, I was also going to open the thread with a video... about cows! Well, more specifically, about cows and jazz. Came across this video today and it made my heart smile big:
