What little things in life make it worth living?
For me,
It's hot chocolate on cold days
Or songs that make you dance;
Sunsets that kiss the world with fire
And put you in a trance
It's snuggling inside a blanket,
becoming a human burrito;
Or passing someone on the street
And exchanging quick hello's
Lovely people of 7 Cups,
those are some of mine;
It's appreciating these things, one by one,
that make life truly shine
Upps. I was gonna write just the mere habit of cooking things i like. even if im not a super chef in the kitchen i like it because i can improve with time
@RhapsodyonSilence I love this! Well done :)
@RhapsodyonSilence Oooh, this is awesome! I love poetry :o These are some of mine too ^-^
@Rose Thanks! I didn't plan for it to turn into a poem originally but it started rhyming so I was like why not
@RhapsodyonSilence haha love this! Why not indeed!
coffee, chocolate granola bars, music, cats purr and dog snuggles, these keep me here
@teleah70 whatever it is that brings you those moments of happiness, hold onto it! That's great!
Sunny days in winter I find massively restoreative... and tea but for everyday :)
Hmm
Being an artsy person, I always look forward to seeing art :) It's always something that someone put their time, effort, and heart into. Even nature itself is art, especially when I look at the sky.
@RhapsodyonSilence So, I love to read. Like LOVE it. But usually, books from places like Barnes and Nobles are way too expensive. But over at the DI, I can get used books for only a few dollars. And it makes me extremely happy to always get books that have a history. Clean sheets and pillowcases also make me happy. Giving random people smiles or compliments always makes me feel good
@MadCatter
Those are some of my favourite things too :)
I'm reading through War and Peace right now -- a chapter a day! Since my edition has 365 chapters and I started on the new year, I'll be finished right when 2019 starts
Do you have any favourite books?
@RhapsodyonSilence I have way too many books to have a favorite haha my favorite book is usually what I'm currently reading. Right now, it's "All About Passion" by Stephanie Laurens. What about you?
@MadCatter
Awesome :)
My favourite book is currently The Little Prince, but Flowers for Algernon by Daniel Keyes comes close!
Folky music. Seeing the sun coming through the windows as I wake up. Books and movies. My father playing guitar all the time. Stupid jokes. Fantasizing about life. Painting and drawing. Singing my lungs out and dancing alone. Walks in the nature. My little cats. My favourite dish. Buying a cd of your favorite band. Springs and summers. Getting home after a long ride and being cuddled by my family.
life can be pretty nice sometimes
@lovingPenguin11
That's beautiful :) (Cats are the best)
What's your favourite dish?
@RhapsodyonSilence for me it's nature, being outside, feeling the sun, the wind, the rain, breathing deeply and just being alive
@courteousNorth5140
Sometimes just closing my eyes and deeply breathing in some fresh air makes my heart swell with an indescribable feeling of comfort :)
@Dana4748
Those words of yours made me smile :)
@RhapsodyonSilence being a human burito is litterally life! But I do it like a mermaid lol so my feet are snuggled up as well
@playfulHero86
Warm feet = happy feet :)
Validation, kindness, understanding, compassion. Though, those end up being pretty big things, in terms of their impact.

@RhapsodyonSilence Music,philosophy,kind people over here and around me,make-up and food makes my life worth living.
Whenever I'm doing something I enjoy and I feel right at home and forget about my worries.
@generousBirch8576
Just being in the zone and shutting out the world can be liberating :)
@RhapsodyonSilence yes it can! it feels really GREAT sometimes I tell you!
