Think about them one at a time BEFORE going on to the next one...

IT DOES MAKE YOU FEEL GOOD, especially the thought at the end.

1. Falling in love.

2. Laughing so hard your face hurts.

3. A hot shower.

4. No lines at the supermarket.

5. A special glance.

6. Getting mail.

7. Taking a drive on a pretty road.

8. Hearing your favorite song on the radio.

9. Lying in bed listening to the rain outside.

10. Hot towels fresh out of the dryer.

11. Chocolate milkshake. (or vanilla or strawberry!)

12 A bubble bath.

13. Giggling.

14. A good conversation.

15. The beach.

16. Finding a 20 dollar bill in your coat from last winter.

17. Laughing at yourself.

19. Midnight phone calls that last for hours.

20. Running through sprinklers.

21. Laughing for absolutely no reason at all.

22. Having someone tell you that you're beautiful.

23. Laughing at an inside joke.

24. Friends.

25. Accidentally overhearing someone say something nice about you.

that some things (good or bad) never change.

as they open a much desired present from you.

no matter what other people think.

How true to all of them....

In the big picture its usually the small things that matter in the end...

Don't mind if I add one....

That belly laugh from a little tyke when you are playing with them

All The Small Things:

Sometimes in life we seem to slow our pace
And in our hearts we're left with an empty space
We only think of the loneliness and pain
Then someone says there’s no need to explain

They do not have to be your very best friend
But maybe you'll find, on them you may depend
Even if you don't say what you’re thinking inside
Just talking is better than trying to hide

I've found people that put a smile on my face
And let me tell you, they've filled that empty space
So to the people I am talking about
I want you to know the small things really do count

When I talk to you I feel everything's okay
To you I owe a debt I could never repay
So when you forget about the lives you touch
Think of me, for it is you I owe so much

I hate to think, without you, what my life would be
So when you have trouble know you may lean on me
And I guess all I'm really trying to say
Is thanks, for it's the small things that have made my day

I came across this poem tonight and thought it fit this thread very well.

A short conversation at bedtime...

Hi Dragonhearted~ It's nice to see you again, it's been ages. I hope that life is treating you well :rose:
 
I think your sig line should be included here, dragonhearted :rose:

Remember the five simple rules to be happy:
1. Free your heart from hatred.
2. Free your mind from worries.
3. Live simply.
4. Give more.
5. Expect less.

lol...

I don't hate anyone...dislike a few.

I have worries because my children have been taken from me and now I am doing all these things so I can get them back, but keep getting signals that I won't be

If I lived any more simply, I wouldn't have this computer

I don't receive enough money to give more...otherwise all I have is clothes to give.

I really don't expect anything anymore....only to wake up every morning.
 
For a minute thought jenny had started this thread about my..... um never mind
 
Quite true... I miss the silly text-messages she used to send, just to say 'I'm thinking of you'...
