- the company of a cat
- a good cup of tea
- the sound of rain while I'm inside and warm
- stimulating conversation
- the smell and feel of a brand new book
- actually, the smell and feel of a really old book
- people who live to make a difference
- connecting with a new person
- sunshine
- working quietly for hours
- sunshine filtering through dust in that pretty way...
- having flowers in my room
- a cup of really luxurious coffee
- having potted plants in my room
- learning something new
- hot chocolate on a cold winter day
- fruit smoothies on a warm summer day
- waking up and realizing you're not sick anymore
- making someone smile
- cleaning out after a semester or such
- finding an oddly shaped carrot
- little boys in tuxedos
- pets after you feed them
- the smell of rain on the pavement
- finishing a great novel
- seeing how many peas can fit stuck in my fork
- taking my trousers off after a long day
- when someone says "You made my day."
- complimenting someone
- writing handwritten letters, licking the envelopes, and mailing them
- seeing very old couples happy together
- giving a hug to someone who needs it
- the initial feeling of jumping into a puddle
- jumping after branches or leaves
- the sound of a leaf crackling while walking in the fall
- when I accomplish something someone told me I could never do
