Last year was very difficult for many people, and some are worried it will be the same this year. During this challenging time, we all need something to be happy about. Some people have a hard time finding things to be happy about; therefore, I present 50 things to be happy about every day!
The sound of birds chirping in the morning.
Hugging a loved one.
Playing with a pet.
The warmth of a comforting blanket.
Your favorite tv show.
The way the morning air feels.
Listening to music.
Participating in a hobby.
Talking to your friends.
Anything sweet!
Reading a new book.
Sleeping in.
Eating your favorite food.
Looking through your camera roll.
Getting a breath of fresh air.
The peaceful feeling of nature.
The voices of your favorite people.
Waking up on the perfect spot of the pillow.
Accomplishing something.
Free time!
Getting compliments from strangers.
Wearing your favorite shirt.
Smelling a candle.
Playing board games with friends or family.
Funny Youtube videos.
Binge-watching a new series.
Seeing sunrises and sunsets.
The sound of rain on the roof.
Laughing until your sides hurt!
Cracking open a new notebook or journal.
The smell of new books.
That one group-chat (you know what I’m talking about)!
Eating out.
Getting letters in the mail.
Having plans to look forward to.
Finally learning all the words to a song.
Taking a nap.
Spending a whole day with your favorite person.
Feeling the wind on your face.
Doing absolutely nothing.
Making someone else smile.
Putting on fuzzy socks.
Trying a really good new food.
Those mini marshmallows in hot chocolate!
Waking up and feeling well-rested.
When you shuffle your music and your favorite song comes on.
Finally getting the hang of something.
The release of something you’ve been waiting for.
Getting a good grade.
And finally… the hope that every new day brings!
