Festivals
and big occasions like a promotion or a wedding are generally a cause for
celebration for everyone. A celebration gets our spirits up and makes our days
sparkle with excitement. So the question is, why wait for an event to happen?
Why can’t we #CelebrateLife everyday?
Today,
I am writing about things that I need to lead a happy life and celebrate every
moment. These things are simple that make big occasions unnecessary, making me
want to enjoy the moment I'm living in.
Happiness
can be found in simple things. Over planning kills magic. You can't plan
to be happy, but yes you can attract happiness. Happiness is not in
materialistic things.
What
happiness means to me ~
1.
Family
I find
happiness in the crease of my parents' smiles. Their support helps me
de-stress. The bonding with your family can help you fight depression and
sadness. Happiness is when they say, they are proud to have a daughter like me.
2.
Books
I find
happiness between pages of a book! The sight of my bookshelf brings me so much
happiness! And I always want to keep adding more to my collection and have a
personal library at home!
3.
Shopping
I feel
no shame in shopping, even impulsive shopping! It makes me happy and I feel
free as I have my own fashion parade before the mirror trying the outfits.
4.
Seeing old couples
Yes,
seeing them gives me a sense of happiness that maybe one day even I'll find
someone with whom I can grow old. The thought brings a smile on my face.
5.
Writing
I love
writing. Writing helps me unclog my mind and I feel pleasant after sharing my
thoughts on my digital diary - my blog. Writing blesses me with some - ME time!
6.
Buying myself Orchids
I love
flowers and especially Orchids! Whenever I feel gloomy, I buy myself flowers as
I return home. It changes my mood instantly.
7.
Weekends
Thank
God for Fridays! I love Friday evenings. I am a lazy person and I love resting
at home in my zone - living as I am.
8.
Gratitude
Being
thankful for what you have also leads to happiness. Ever tried thanking God in
your prayers for all that you have, rather than giving Him a long list of what
you want? Do try. It gives immense peace.
9.
Doing small favors on people around me
Help
others. It helps you help yourself. What goes around comes around, small acts
of kindness will always bring you good. Help people who can never repay you
back, it's soothing, I tell you.
10.
Sleeping
Last,
but not the least! I love sleeping for hours - like babies; sleeping without
setting an alarm - is heaven! I love sleeping diagonally on the bed, ruling it
all over!
11.
Letting go
I have
learnt by now that cribbing and clinging onto people will do me no good.
Letting go brings me happiness and mental stability.
12.
Winning vouchers for your post
Writing
is my passion. But it feels extremely happy and satisfying when you get
somewhat paid for it (that too in the form of vouchers)! *winks* Happy writing,
happy splurging!
I would
like to finish up my post by saying, 'Do what makes you happy.' Happiness is
always here, around each one of us, we only have to attract it! Celebrate each
day as it comes.
Tell me
what makes you happy! Till then - Stay happy, keep smiling!
