Happiness

How that I have expressed some parts of my life, you may be wondering if this has caused me to be sad and depressed all the time but surprisingly most of the time I am happy, in fact people pick me up on always being happy and positive. I guess that is because I don’t want to be tainted by the things that have happened to me and I want to move on from them so this post is simply going to be a list of things that make me happy.

The Beach – Living my the sea means that I have spend many days in the sunshine down the beach with friends or family or sometimes my myself. The main things that I love about the beach is the smell because it reminds me of fun and exciting memories but also just the views that you get no matter the time of the day specially as where I live can be quite unattractive at times. This is the place that I go when I need to reflect, relax and also when I want to make more memories. 

Reading – Recently this has been something that I have picked up again because as much as some people see it as a chore, I absolutely love it. I love getting stuck into other peoples lives and knowing their stories even if they are a fictional character. I love that I can pick up a book and not have to worry about what’s happening around me for a little while. I guess some would say this is how I escape from the world but with the constant reminders of negativity on the news this is well needed.

Working – I love going to work and not having to having to concentrate on anything but making people happy. I work in a pretty average size café which has a much larger sized cake cabinet and I absolutely love it when I serve a happy customer a slice of cake and they smile. I love seeing people enjoy something that I have put the time and effort into doing. 

Watching Series – I love anything that has be hooked, similar to reading I love that I can draw into the stories that appear. Some of my favourites have included Prison Break, Pretty Little Liars, Orange is the New Black, Gossip Girl, etc. I literally could carry on the list, because once I start I can’t stop so waiting for a new episode of Pretty Little Liars at the minute is pretty much killing me. One of the first series that I watched was Life Unexpected and I love Britt Robertson, her character was so relatable and the stories were so interesting but comical. 

Shopping – There is nothing better than finding a new outfit to brighten up your wardrobe. It always makes me so happy when I have come home from a successful shopping trip, it might not make my bank account happy but I know that I have money well spend. I also love coming in and showing my mum the new clothes that I have brought, I also love her expression when there is something that she might not like and she goes ‘’okay’’ as if to say ‘are you sure that’s what you wanted’. 

Learning – This may make me seem like a right nerd but I love to learn new things and I love it when I can then use that knowledge to help someone else because so empowering to me. I love learning about different things but my preferred subject is Geography because there is so much to learn about the world and its so interesting, every lesson there is something new to learn and find out about. 

As you can how see there are many things in my life that make me so happy that fill each day with smiles and laughter.
