Extra Happiness

That Little Bit Of Extra Happiness

By Ruth Elizabeth StiffPublished 2 years ago 1 min read
"I think it's Important to find the little things in everyday life that make you happy"

What makes you happy?

It is very often

the little things in life

that we like,

and by adding these ‘little things’

into our everyday routine,

we can have

that little bit of extra happiness

everyday.

A good exercise

is to sit down quietly

at the end of the day,

and

think about the good things

that you have seen or heard that day.

Some people write these down

in a “Gratitude Journal”,

so that they can

go back and remember.

This is a good way

to Strengthen our Minds.

Was it a smile?

A friendly “Hello”?

A kind act of some kind?

Did you see a loved one?

Have that cup of tea and a cuddle?

We have to be careful

not to take these things

for granted.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

    "What makes you happy? It is very often, the little things in life." I can read the whole poem only through this couple of words. Excellent!!!
