Most times people say Happiness comes from within, but I think for me my happiness could be fixed on some things, some people, and some moments in my life.
Most days I could be down but whenever I pick up something I love or go to where I love, I feel better and those things give me happiness and make me feel at peace.
Happiness doesn’t have to be when you have the whole world, little things can bring happiness and make you feel like you have the whole world.
Several things bring joy and happiness to me and I would be talking about just 5.
FOOD
My parents and siblings will always ask me why I don’t let my mood affect my eating habits. I could be sad and then when I see a plate of food I am extremely happy and lively. There was a certain period when I went over to my friend's place and he got me angry, I told him I was going to go back to my house but since he was cooking I preferred to eat first before I go back. He ended up laughing. Food is joy, I can never see good food and not do my happy dance.
I just love eating and trying good food. It makes me happy. So I think most times when I am sad I just try to walk into a restaurant and get a great meal or I will just order food online and get it delivered to me. It’s been a great therapy and it works like magic.
THE BEACH
Ever had a place you go to when you feel down and stressed well I do have one and it’s the beach. I love every view of it, the serenity. I look at the tides and everything and all I can say is “Nature is beautiful”. I run around the beach so excited and then I feel at rest both mentally and physically. I must admit the beach has been a source of happiness to me all these years even if I can’t swim.
MY PHONE
I could be going through a hard time and then I pick up my phone and I can’t help but laugh at certain videos I see online and certain memes. I think my phone has been helpful all these years. I lost my phone a certain year and I must admit it was one of the most boring years of my life. A few months without a phone. I wouldn’t want that to happen to me ever again. I love my phone. For communication, for work and everything I just need my phone.
AIRPODS
I was traveling one period and I couldn’t find my AirPods, I felt like crying like I just couldn’t find the right emotions at that period. I kept asking myself how will I cope during the whole travel process, and what will i be doing.
My dad had to get me a new one before the journey started. Music is a therapy to me. My AirPods make me feel like I can listen to every beat and hear every lyric without having any noise around.
When I put on my AirPods it feels like nothing else matters, just me, my AirPods, and my music against the whole world. Peace at its peak.
I could be going through a whole lot but when I connect my AirPods to my phone listening to my favorite music album. I feel this joy that I can’t explain.
MY PUPPY
Funny how I am scared of dogs but I find peace in my baby Skylar, when she was given to me as a gift, I looked at my friend and said “You know I am scared of dogs”, He was like “You will love her trust”.
I guess he was right cause she feels like a part of me already. She is always ready to take a pose for the camera. I would be sad and then I sit Skylar down and have a conversation with her. It’s funny but I think she understands me and listens to me attentively. She is nothing but a blessing.
The little things always matters☺️
