There’s lots of things that make me happy in the short term.. but for me to be happy in the long term, it’d be someone i can trust and talk to, as i said in my above comment.. Just thought I’d point that out.
Thinking about finally moving abroad and living my dream :) The one that involves paddling in warm tropical water on a white sandy beach… oh and receiving text messages from one particular person, who shall remain nameless and who I should really know better than to go squishy over!!
Happy…
… getting home from work and feeling relaxed and not wound up by someone or something stupid.
… getting a cuddle or a phonecall from a certain person for no real reason except that he thought of me.
… fridays, when work is over and I can relax (or my version of relaxing, which is just slightly less tense!)
… when my mum makes me tea and cake
… when my dad makes me egg n chips
… being good at my job
… friends
Coming home from work, seeing young Ollie look up and give me a great big smile! He jumps up and down in his little toy car until I pick him up and we run about the house for a mad half hour!
:love: I THINK WHAT MAKES ME SO HAPPY IS MICHAEL SCHUMACHER I HAVE FOLLOWED HIM SINCE 1991 AND HE IS SUCH A GREAT WELL LAID BACK GENTLEMAN HE IS SO TALENTED AND POLITE IF THERE IS NAYMEDIA:sad: READING THIS LEAVE HIM ALONE,IF YOU THINK YOU CAN DO ANY BETTER THAN HIM YOU TRY IT YOU WOULDNT BE ABLE TO DO IT, AND JUST BECAUSE FERNANDO ALONSO IS WORLD CHAMPION IT DOSENT MEAN HES THE BEST, HIP HIP HOORAY FOR FERRARI AND SCHUMI AND BOO TO REMAULTS
i guess what makes me happy is having somebody to love and somebody who loves me. and snuggling. and waking up and actually wanting to be awake. or when someone makes u smile on the inside and u walk away and can’t help but beam from ear to ear. yeh i like that.
I like this, i actually made a colour palette about this awhile back…
* a good hair day
* pumpkin pie (so seasonal, only get to eat one around autumn every year)
* nothing to do on a rainy day but curl up and snooze under a cozy blanket
* not having to punch a timeclock anymore
* acceptance, being treated respectfully, seeing someone do something kind for someone else
* $ on hand, $ set aside, $ coming to me soon
* sweet smiles & coos from a tiny baby, especially when it’s just for me
* reading blogs, i love being a fly inside peoples heads, each & every one is unique & gifted
…just to awake to another day..see am still alive..enjoy the beauty of life..nature..candle lights..soft music..and wine..my kids..and someone special that always make me smile and makes me feel how much am worth…
When a bad things happen to show you whats really important in life. Your boyfriend sleeping with a friend can really show you the value of your real friends as well as being a darn lucky escape!
Being loved and loving in return. Right now i can’t commit, to whom i want to because my baby is so far away and i’m just dying inside…
…..TASH..I KNOW THE FEELIN..BUT IF THE LOVE IS MENT TO BE THERES NO DISTANCE..NO SEA..NO STORM..NO HUMAN..THAT CANT MAKE IT BE..YOU CANT FORCE LOVE..PART OF LOVIN IS KNOWING WHEN TO LET GO…AND IF IT RETURNS TO YOU WAS ALWAYS URS..IF IT DOESNT IT NEVER WAS..HUGSSSS..MIRZA
That was really sweet Mirza. I do hope that it is meant to be because I would not like to know that I have expended such intense emotions, only to be forgotten…
Hope you have all that you need in love, take care.
….awww jonny..just awakenin to a new day is a motive to be happy cause we alive..beleive me ive been near to death..and since then i just thank god for another day his givin me even tho sometimes is not what we expect..look around there is always someone that trully cares about u…hugsssss..u have a friend here..yea yea if u wish lol..take care my friend..Mirza
People who can successfully create a sentence about a reason why they’re happy or you should be happy or whatever without some seriously horrid spelling errors and mentioning their god.
Knowing that being generous and offering help, prolongs our lives and reduces the time needed for us to understand th|ngs, we’ve always wanted to understand, but never could.
What makes me happy is knowing I’m alive and I’ve survived… for a long time I made others responsible for my happiness, but I realised that’s too much pressure to put on someone… So if I can be happy just being me, I’ll be better at making others happy.. I love it when someone loves me being me but until he turns up in my life I’m just going to stand small amidst mountains, feel the weather on my skin and stop to smell the roses all around me :o)
BB is over until next year, and i doubt they’ll find another housemate like Nikki. Pure entertainment, will be sorely missed(from the TV screen that is, not going to watch BB any more)
a good ear, genuine respect, being taken seriously.
those moments when tension and suffering lift and the world feels like a place I’m glad to be.
when I’m fiddling and my bow finds that place, of swinging between weight and lightness, that raw/delicate syncopation, remarkably hard to describe, but takes the tune into this surreal ecstatic place, and my brain with it.
1: Completing my project to build a fully functional Johnny Five Robot as seen in the Short Circuit films of the 1980s would make me happy,
2: To have a caring loving lady in my life would make me feel happy to know that someone cares and that i make a differents to somebodys life, somebody really special…
wow, so many really awesome thoughts here. i loved the getting stoned and the one with the combine. i grew up partly in the south and i remember what the golden fields look like first thing in the a.m.
hm, what makes me happy? i guess i make me happy. i have the power to find joy in nearly every moment of my life. there are always a great manu contributing ingredients: my writing, my company, my niece, random wonderful and beautiful things. i stir them up but in the end i make the happy. :)
I wish I knew. Currently seeking enlightenment. Is the cure for a broken heart the acceptance of the fact that all men are lieing pigs? and a lesson not to be so stupid as to think that love is ever real.
Further to my previous post… have just remembered I was meant to be trying that positive thinking thing “Cosmic Ordering Service” recently promoted by Noel Edmunds. Basically you just write down your wishes and therefore place your order with the Cosmos. So here goes … my main wish is …. “to find a decent honest man who will be my best mate and love and care about me almost as much as I do him.” This is the one thing I have always wanted in my life … I also believe that 8 is my lucky number … so maybe the powers of the Cosmos could kindly make my wish come true by the 8 August 2006 …. cos that would be 888 ( 8+8+2+6) Sorry for the short notice … but apparently wishes for loving purposes come true quicker.
wat makes me happy? i honestly can say I dont know as it has been so long since i have been truly happy. I wonder if I eva will be COMPLETELY happy, which at 20 years of age, is slightly upsetting.
I have moments of happiness dont get me wrong, waking up to a certain someone, stolen kisses , laughing with friends, watching the sun set… they are all moments of relaxed, contented blissful happiness. But to be happy totally happy? wat would make me happy is maybe my life being far more simple and not feeling so pressured and vulnerable and lost. I think happiness is when u r where you wanna be, doing wat u wanna be doing with someone who wants to be there with u as much as you do and without either of u having to sacrifice or lose out on anything.
wow, all those comments above sure inspired me. lol, and i’ve worked out wat i need to do to make me happy, glad i found this blog ;-)
People watching
walking to ur favourite tune that no one else cane here
juice at the end of the calippo
eye contact
long hot showers
changing old peoples perception of youths by smiling
first kisses
realising you were wrong
turning to the cold side of the pillow
being the first to offer the helping hand
going against the rules
making a plan hapen
:-)
Music, my friends, my sis, parties, art, chocolate, shopping, holidays, school (but thats only because I live so far from my friends and school is the only place where I can see them. That and the good subjects like art) and msn-i couldnt live without it
I love watching the people I love laugh. If I could spend my whole life sitting quietly on a couch in a noisy room filled with laughing friends, I would.
Reading a difficult text about something important and reading it again until I understand it completely (like Inwardness and Existence); seeing things finished especially a landscaped area or room or whole house; helping somebody who really needs it makes me happy; Siamese cat when he seems to be chasing something not there; the city.
Dawn flying outta Ballico to Deans’ Strawberry field. Cool inversion layer in the San Joaquin the first 100 feet and then the heat. Chopn’ the power on my Hurc and slippn’ under the wires as Dean pull his Rotax 503 to life.

My own family (my boyfriend Don and our dog Buddy) Whenever things are terrible, no matter what happens, I know I have the unending love and support from them that allows me to keep going. Sorry, this just seemed like a question I had to answer, more for me than anyone else =]
Thanks!
Remembering that the tough bits will pass.
Random acts of kindness.
Soft sweet raspberries that melt on my tongue.
Dancing.
Dancing with someone.
Dancing down the street knowing that people think i’m peculiar.
Soft kisses on my forehead.
Knowing I’ve helped alleviate someone’s pain.
Having someone special to care about.
Bare feet on lush green grass.
Knowing that someone-special is out there looking for me. (Remembering I must turn on my light so he can find me…)

It seems like nothing makes me happy nemore, every moment of happiness is closely followed by intense moments of sadness.If happiness was a constant state then i’d be happy.
At the moment though a laptop that din’t break down every 2 seconds would be nice.
Simplicity

Getting up every morning and seeing the light from the sun shining in my window. My memories of my ex-boyfriend and how we used to sleep in on Saturdays and just cuddle. I hate being so romantic, but this really made me cry. Seeing so many people saying that doing good makes them happy…it really gives me a warm fuzzy feeling inside. Maybe we will be ok in the end. Cheers, Liz

Relaxing and hanging out with Family and freinds.
A good nights sleep
No road rage in the morning and stupid drivers on the interstate hoggin the left lane, feel like putting a towtruck bumper on my truck and bumping every last one of them.
Law enforcement that would do there JOBS instead of turning there heads the other way.
Politicians that would NOT lie and cheat and be alchoholics and back stabbers
And a whole lot more
Being in love with someone whom I absolutely cant get ENOUGH of!!
Knowing how he feels about me by just looking into his eyes.
When i dont say a word to him and he knows exactly what is on my mind.
Someone who loves me against all odds and who will risk everything to be with me.
Life is way too short to live it not being happy…so dont worry about what other people think about you and just be happy.
What makes me happy? When I wake up in the morning to the sun shining bright. I know I get it, I really get life and most of us walk around this world not really understanding life. The thing is you have to figure it out on your own, nobody can do that for you.I’m happy I understand life.
Remembering my elderly grandparents as they were when I was little
Waking up and realising there’s no work today
Having one too many and dancing, even to music I don’t really like
Hugs..especially from children that you know don’t get too many
Making people laugh
When my husband comes home early from work unexpectedly
And finally..the fantasy that one day inventors will invent a machine that will follow me about all day tidying up after me
Being Alive makes me happy, knowing that everything is interconnected and that everything happens for a reason makes me want to know what will happen next.
My son’s innocence makes me happy.
The sea’s vastness and openess makes me feel free.
Generally to be on this planet makes me happy.
BBC have carried out a similar survey that I heard about on the radio but can’t find online. It would be cool to compare their results with the replies here :)
Why worry about the spelling and grammar? Surely it matters more what the person is saying rather than the form? And anyway we can’t all have the same talents or life would be SO boring! (ps: ever heard of dyslexia? and all the others ways life can stop you doing it “right”?)
Happiness: knowing Mark Mcgowan is going to eat a swan at the Guy Hilton Gallery, 35 Fournier Street on Saturday 13th January 2007 at 5pm. go for it Mark, just wish I get there and bring you some Duchy of Cornwall chutney to go with it!
For me, the first flush of love is one powerful happiness drug, especially in the way that the feelings associated with love spill over into my perception of life, surprising me with its beauty - I don’t think that this has ever been expressed better than in these lines from Endymion by John Keats:
…. but who, of men, can tell
That flowers would bloom, or that green fruit would swell
To melting pulp, that fish would have bright mail,
The earth its dower of river, wood, and vale,
The meadows runnels, runnels pebble-stones,
The seed its harvest, or the lute its tones,
Tones ravishment, or ravishment its sweet,
If human souls did never kiss and greet?
This news is bound to be controversial, for sure, for sure. If you’re a woman having unprotected sex with one or more men then new research demonstrates that semen may make you happy. :D http://www.newscientist.com/article.ns?id=dn2457

To elaborate on my above answer, i shall say…
There’s lots of things that make me happy in the short term.. but for me to be happy in the long term, it’d be someone i can trust and talk to, as i said in my above comment.. Just thought I’d point that out.
Meeting up with friends. Drinking good beer. Smoking good cigars.
Thinking about finally moving abroad and living my dream :) The one that involves paddling in warm tropical water on a white sandy beach… oh and receiving text messages from one particular person, who shall remain nameless and who I should really know better than to go squishy over!!
my beautiful girlfriend in my arms
Jim and I have the same outlook on life :)

Getting laid

Coming home from work, seeing young Ollie look up and give me a great big smile! He jumps up and down in his little toy car until I pick him up and we run about the house for a mad half hour!
That never fails to make me happy!!

And sleeping in on Sundays. And then not having to do anything all day but knit.
Writing makes me happy, too. But knitting takes the cake.:blush:
Sleeping and doing whatever I want for the whole day :smile:
Cutting golden brown oats (with my combine harvester)on a bright sunny day against a blue sky. (Oat straw is really golden)

That I’ll get the career I have worked at for 3 years to achieve!!!!!
I like this, i actually made a colour palette about this awhile back…
* a good hair day
* pumpkin pie (so seasonal, only get to eat one around autumn every year)
* nothing to do on a rainy day but curl up and snooze under a cozy blanket
* not having to punch a timeclock anymore
* acceptance, being treated respectfully, seeing someone do something kind for someone else
* $ on hand, $ set aside, $ coming to me soon
* sweet smiles & coos from a tiny baby, especially when it’s just for me
* reading blogs, i love being a fly inside peoples heads, each & every one is unique & gifted
what me me happy just now was seiing that number 1 on this was, Getting Stoned. which im away to do. :)
1. Love
2. The BF
3. Art (which is, in its finest form, love translated into tangible media)
4. Mark helping me fix my broken WP site.
Seeing others happy …
You :) but seriously…
Zero php errors
Well behaved kids
Polite adults
Seeing the goodie win. Though more realistic in the modern world, a cup of rosie and a big slice of joe, easy on the acker mind!
…just to awake to another day..see am still alive..enjoy the beauty of life..nature..candle lights..soft music..and wine..my kids..and someone special that always make me smile and makes me feel how much am worth…
When a bad things happen to show you whats really important in life. Your boyfriend sleeping with a friend can really show you the value of your real friends as well as being a darn lucky escape!
Some Beer and a Broiler.
a new macbook pro!
Being loved and loving in return. Right now i can’t commit, to whom i want to because my baby is so far away and i’m just dying inside…
…TASH.
…..TASH..I KNOW THE FEELIN..BUT IF THE LOVE IS MENT TO BE THERES NO DISTANCE..NO SEA..NO STORM..NO HUMAN..THAT CANT MAKE IT BE..YOU CANT FORCE LOVE..PART OF LOVIN IS KNOWING WHEN TO LET GO…AND IF IT RETURNS TO YOU WAS ALWAYS URS..IF IT DOESNT IT NEVER WAS..HUGSSSS..MIRZA
That was really sweet Mirza. I do hope that it is meant to be because I would not like to know that I have expended such intense emotions, only to be forgotten…
Hope you have all that you need in love, take care.
I don’t know anymore…

Yes!
the thought of winning the lottery, moving to a island with no men on so they can’t brake my heart anymore!!!!!!!
friends, music
What makes me happy?
Getting my accidentally deleted yahoo mails back.That would be heavenly.
Writing still makes me happy. And being homeless, too. I am both of those things, or is it one? Homeless. A writer vs. A homeless writer?
I don’t know.
Questions don’t make me as happy as writing.
Okay,
Father Luke
knowing that when i die there will be so much to look forward to
Happiness as defined by me:
Falling asleep during a thunder storm, to the sound of rain on the tin roof, with one hot girlfriend in your arms.
That and the Mango Magic smoothie at Boost Juice.
Happiness..the moment you close the gap between a girl you’ve hankered after for ages. Nothing beats that
My new daughter but also having time to party. I guess I’m a partymom.
Just being “okay”. That makes me happy. I don’t take “being okay” for granted anymore.
Very many things, but in a word:
Life.
My daughter’s smile, it makes me beam inside too. It’s the simple things in life that are the best.
Remembering that the only easy day was yesterday.
BB is over until next year, and i doubt they’ll find another housemate like Nikki. Pure entertainment, will be sorely missed(from the TV screen that is, not going to watch BB any more)
a good ear, genuine respect, being taken seriously.

Getting up every morning and seeing the light from the sun shining in my window. My memories of my ex-boyfriend and how we used to sleep in on Saturdays and just cuddle. I hate being so romantic, but this really made me cry. Seeing so many people saying that doing good makes them happy…it really gives me a warm fuzzy feeling inside. Maybe we will be ok in the end. Cheers, Liz

My son not telling me that his car is having mechanical problems AGAIN
My yellow labrador retriver
Riding are quads / ATV’s in the mountains
Relaxing and hanging out with Family and freinds.
A good nights sleep
No road rage in the morning and stupid drivers on the interstate hoggin the left lane, feel like putting a towtruck bumper on my truck and bumping every last one of them.
Law enforcement that would do there JOBS instead of turning there heads the other way.
Politicians that would NOT lie and cheat and be alchoholics and back stabbers
And a whole lot more
I feel happy when -
> I do what my heart pleases,
> Reading a book
> Making others laugh or smile
> I get to express myself (like blogging)
I don’t remember the rest but to feel happy is to live happy….
FLIRTING WITH MY WORK COLLEAGUES
nOT HAVING TO SPEND THE NEXT FEW MONTHS WITH MY BACK AGAINST THE WALL!
Wan ton soup and whipping cream
Being in love with someone whom I absolutely cant get ENOUGH of!!
Knowing how he feels about me by just looking into his eyes.
When i dont say a word to him and he knows exactly what is on my mind.
Someone who loves me against all odds and who will risk everything to be with me.
Life is way too short to live it not being happy…so dont worry about what other people think about you and just be happy.
Beeng in love. I concur with Julia.
BE HAPPY!
What makes me happy? When I wake up in the morning to the sun shining bright. I know I get it, I really get life and most of us walk around this world not really understanding life. The thing is you have to figure it out on your own, nobody can do that for you.I’m happy I understand life.
My wife, kids and pups. Anything else is a luxury, not a requirement.

just really silly stuff… poo! hehe
my boyfriend
What makes me happy?
a long walk on streets at midnights,
being alone in a beach at sunrise and sunset,
a girl company who is as crazy as me and a hell a kind of lover, loving me and only me,
spending time with smiling and talkative babies,
getting wet and dirty on a rainy day,
and most of all making others happy always makes me happy.
Remembering my elderly grandparents as they were when I was little
Waking up and realising there’s no work today
Having one too many and dancing, even to music I don’t really like
Hugs..especially from children that you know don’t get too many
Making people laugh
When my husband comes home early from work unexpectedly
And finally..the fantasy that one day inventors will invent a machine that will follow me about all day tidying up after me
Life is good. What makes me happy is knowing no matter how hard things get or how down I may possibly be, that there is a life after death.
Listening to my heart and doing things that make me happy and not anyone else. Stop trying to explain myself to others when I really don’t have to.
Being Alive makes me happy, knowing that everything is interconnected and that everything happens for a reason makes me want to know what will happen next.
My son’s innocence makes me happy.
The sea’s vastness and openess makes me feel free.
Generally to be on this planet makes me happy.
Dancing, music!
Beautiful things, soft things, great tasting things, great smelling things.
Owning either a PS3 or a Wii..but i’m not..haha
Silence…and people who know how to use proper grammar and spelling. Hooray.
BBC have carried out a similar survey that I heard about on the radio but can’t find online. It would be cool to compare their results with the replies here :)
Why worry about the spelling and grammar? Surely it matters more what the person is saying rather than the form? And anyway we can’t all have the same talents or life would be SO boring! (ps: ever heard of dyslexia? and all the others ways life can stop you doing it “right”?)
Happiness: knowing Mark Mcgowan is going to eat a swan at the Guy Hilton Gallery, 35 Fournier Street on Saturday 13th January 2007 at 5pm. go for it Mark, just wish I get there and bring you some Duchy of Cornwall chutney to go with it!
to see my husband smile over and over for a week, that would make me smile.
Climbing a hill and then getting to the top and seeing a sun drenched view spread out beneath you.
For me, the first flush of love is one powerful happiness drug, especially in the way that the feelings associated with love spill over into my perception of life, surprising me with its beauty - I don’t think that this has ever been expressed better than in these lines from Endymion by John Keats:
…. but who, of men, can tell
That flowers would bloom, or that green fruit would swell
To melting pulp, that fish would have bright mail,
The earth its dower of river, wood, and vale,
The meadows runnels, runnels pebble-stones,
The seed its harvest, or the lute its tones,
Tones ravishment, or ravishment its sweet,
If human souls did never kiss and greet?
This news is bound to be controversial, for sure, for sure. If you’re a woman having unprotected sex with one or more men then new research demonstrates that semen may make you happy. :D
