What are those little things which make you feel good to be alive?

Things like waking up to a warm, sunny day like we had today when I didn't need to wear a coat and scarf to keep warm.

    * The rare moments when my kids are actually nice and loving to each other. It makes my heart smile.

    * Being witness to caring and selfless acts.

    waking up period :tongue: waking up to a warm sunny day like you described is definitely a little thing to smile about.

    I like to stop and smell the roses...literally... when I grocery shop. It just reminds me to slow down in general and take a moment to enjoy something.

    Looking up at the stars on a dark cold night makes me smile when I'm biatching about the cold...

    Anytime I get to see a beautiful colorful sunset

    *editing to say great post! Thanks for posting it...and enjoying seeing everyone else's little smile-worthy moments* :flowerforyou:

    What makes me feel alive is when I work out and especially my spin class. I have been feeling horrible all day, but I didn't even think about calling to cancel. It is now over with and I feel much better than I did previously.

    Thanks so much! :smile:

    I love sunsets too and wish I had an ounce of artistic talent so I could paint one.

    I love it when all the plants in my wildlife garden come into flower and the bees and butterflies and other insects arrive for their feeding frenzy.

    Clear, blue Texas skies

    Flowers blooming in the Spring

    My 14 year old son letting my 7 year old daughter "hang out" with him

    COFFEE in the morning and warm tea at night.

    Every morning when I get up, I go out to the kitchen and say "where is my Serenity?" Out comes my 3 year old and she says "I'm right here mommy" and gives me the biggest hug. I hope she never gets to old to do that.
