…Happiness mainly comes from our own attitude, rather than from external factors. If your own mental attitude is correct, even if you remain in a hostile atmosphere, you feel happy– The Dalai Lama

I was tagged by jeannie to create a list of the things that make me happy. Just like the Dalai Lama, I believe that happiness depends on us; we create our own happiness.
1. Love. Love in general makes me happy. My loved ones make me happy. When I feel love in the air (even if it’s between people I don’t know), I feel happy.

2. Being kind to others. Noble as it seems, I really do feel happy being kind to other people. When I see the glow in their eyes, and when I see the hapiness in their eyes, I too become happy. And when, somehow, I feel i’ve done something to make the world a better place, I feel happy.

3. Travel. Obvious isn’t it? I enjoy everything (well, except maybe unpacking my luggage) about traveling, from the preparations (especially finding the best travel deals), to the travel itself, to the post-travel routines (looking at and printing pictures…and planning the next vacation). There’s something about the thrill of going to and exploring a place. I love adventure!

4. Sleep. Who does not love sleep? I love sleeping in on weekends and getting the much needed rest after a week’s work.

5. Work. Yes, I am happy with my work. In times like these, I consider myself lucky to have work. That is why I am trying my best to love my work.

6. Food. I am happy when I eat! Food is a blessing, and it is to be enjoyed. I am also happy with all the kwentuhan that occurs during meals (be it with family or friends).

It would make me very happy if spiky, emben, sunny, and princess dyanie (if they are not too busy) would continue this tag.
Have a great week everyone!
