11 things that make me happy

The first thing that makes me happy is the sun. Not only because it looks so beautiful when the sun is shining, but also because of that warm feeling you get on your face when the sunrays touch your face.

One other thing I really love is the feeling just after you’ve bought new clothes. For some weird reason it’s  just an indescribable feeling, that you can’t wait to wear your new clothes. Wearing my new clothes makes me as happy as having them. Because for me, wearing those new clothes, is like having a robe of confidence around me. Which makes me really happy.

Next thing is scents that smell so good, you just wanna smell it whole day long. I think it’s just really funny that a smell can make me smile for a second.

Fourth is waking up with the sound of singing birds. I love waking up with that beautiful noise, because that gives me a good start of the day. But unfortunately that’s unlikely to happen every day because most days I have to throw myself out of bed and turn off the alarm….


Beautiful and meaningful movies make me really happy as well. One amazing movie I can watch every day is ‘Titanic’. It’s a pretty sad movie but for some reason it’s just such a beautiful movie with a heartbreaking story that it makes me happy to watch it.

Of course laughing has to exist on this list. But the best laughs are the ones that are unstoppable and the ones that don’t even have a reason.

Flowers….. when I see those bright colorful flowers inside or outside, it gives me instantly a ‘happy boost’ for some reason. Especially when I see those really beautiful ones that when you see them, you can already smell the sense of flowers and roses even though you’re not nearby.

Tea is something that really makes me happy as well. I can drink tea every hour because I just really love the warmth and the taste of tea and the fact that there are so many flavors you can choose from. Cherry and strawberry are definitely my favorites.


The ninth thing is taking pictures and watching old pictures. I love capturing beautiful moments with my friends or just making a picture of random things. Because watching back all those old pictures I’ve taken and then remembering all those beautiful moments just because of seeing one photo, makes me really happy. I think it’s just really amazing that you can remember whole stories, that you wouldn’t think of by yourself, because of seeing one image.

One other thing is lights. I love it when it’s dark outside and seeing all those beautiful sparkling lights, like if I’m watching  the bright stars at night. The lights of dancing candles in a dark cozy room, also makes me really happy.

My last ‘happy-maker’ are my friends. The fact that you share almost the same thoughts and hobbies as some other people is just amazing. Sometimes you gotta work hard to find them. But the big reward you get is you have people that mean so much to you and who you can trust, so you can tell them everything that’s on your heart.


“Thousands of candles can be lighted from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared.” – Buddha
