THINGS THAT MAKE US HAPPY

G'day folks,


Life is full of problems and challenges, and sometimes we forget the simple pleasures that not only make life worth living but do actually make us feel happy, for a second, a minute or an hour. There are thousands of things that make us happy, but since you probably don't have all day, here is a simple list of simple things that make us happy. No doubt, you can add some more of your own. 
 
"When I was little, I was asked to write down what I'd like to be when I got older. I wrote: Happy"  

When they told me I didn't understand the assignment, I told them they didn't understand life."
