Topic: What little things in life make you happy?

"One of the secrets of a happy life is continuous small treats."
-Iris Murdoch
This quote kind of got me thinking about how it's the little things that often have a big impact. What are the little things that make you happy, no matter how simple?
I'll start, mine is having a nice, warm coffee and just sitting and thinking or reading. 
So, what's yours?
"All men should strive to learn before they die: What they are running from, and to, and why."
-James Thurber

Going for a run during a cool day. Laying in the dirt and staring at the trees. Tea, coffee with milk and sugar, and show tunes... I love show tunes!

The smell of pen ink.
When my friends get me something small that they remembered I liked.
When a teachers tells us to turn in homework and I forgot I did it, so I'm dreading every second, but then I look and see it's done.
When I ride my bike past someones house and can tell they're doing laundry because it smells really great.
Watching water running down the street.
Clouds, sunsets, trees, that sort of thing.
Inside jokes.
Holding hands is pretty fun.
There are a lot more but that's all I could think of on the spot. (:

My showers... I love showers and I always get my best idea's in them:')
on saturday nights when I can finally snuggle up in bed safe if the knowledge my stupid alarm will not be waking me up and I can sleep in till whenever the fuck I want ;)
Mondays after school cos my mum does the shopping so I know I can go home and pig out ;)
Whenever my parents are out and I can shout anything I want the gayer the better ;)
Going on walks when it's sunny's pretty nice.
I like friday nights too, I hang out with one of my friends who I can totally have such a laugh with and it always makes me feel better about life
Hugs :3 (especially from her)
Being stood up for with my amazing friends tease me ;) (they're kidding though)
Thats all i have right now :3 x

Just being alive, I'm not always happy because no one is but I'm thankful for existing and sometimes I'll just sit and take in everything around me. I'll always love seeing a sunset, the feel of spring coming, and the leaves and lowers. Stuff like that. Camping- the whole outdoors thing and being with nature, admiring every little aspect of it such as the animals, the smell of the trees and grasses and things like that.

Lying there, listening to something melodic, and just soaking in all of the harmony, instruments, notes, and rhythms being played at the same time. <3

Books. Just loosing yourself in a story. All throughout summer I was reading. My mom thought it was because I was trying to read 50 books (which I did. Over 50 actually). When really I read them to get away from her. And from thinking about things that troubled me over the summer. I love books. *picks up The Hunger Games* YAY! Friday!

Memorable moments with family, friends, or boy/girl friend. I can always look back at them and smile.
"Are you ok?" "Yeah... I'm just tired." T orn apart, I nsecure, R eally faking a smile, E xtremely sad, D rowning in my tears "...yeah just tired."

Many things in life make me happy.

Her soft lips upon my lips and cheeks.
Going for a walk or trail ride during the sunsets.
Getting lost in my books and writing.
Knowing my friends care.

Hmmm that would have to be... chocolate ice cream, a marathon of Glee, getting to take a nap in the middle of my day, my cats, and CAP weekends
I am gay, straight, bisexual, lesbian, transgender... I am a person.

Getting a compliment from any of my friends is always nice. ;)
If the weather outside is nice and the skies are beautiful I can't help but smile.
Whenever I have time to myself to just sit down and relax I'm happy.
Aaaaand... If I happen to see/meet a cute guy or talk to someone I like then I'm really happy. Like butterflies and rainbows happy, for days.
Lol xD
