Can you have joy in the simple things in life in this fast-paced world? Everything will depend on the lens with which you look at things. Every day we wake up we do the simple act of opening our eyes, it will depend on you if you take it with joy or not. We must remember that one day we were children and everything was happy for us and that is how we should continue, but we insist on the opposite and this is due to the problems that we face every day without stopping to think that children also have their problems adapting to this. world and yet they fear nothing, showing a smile at all times.
But above all, there are simple things that make me feel happy like knowing that my family is well, physically and emotionally. Their happiness is my happiness, we are always in communication and we tell each other things about problems and joys, such as their and my grandchildren's birthdays. And with 3 grandchildren in my house I can tell you that they bring a lot of joy to my home. Every time they bring good grades from school, when they are promoted each year of grade, or simply with their occurrences as children (which is constantly).
Nature offers us its small pleasures every day that give me a lot of joy. I love the beach, the sand, the breeze (even if it messes up my hair), the sun even though it burns me, the water, sometimes warm and sometimes cold. The beach has a perfect component for my happiness.
Turning a birthday makes me immensely happy and you will say: how does becoming a year older make you happy? I think it is from the point of view with which I see it. On my birthday I receive congratulations from family, friends and acquaintances and even from people who have only seen me and have not had a personal encounter with me, as is the case with my online friends, who only know each other via the Internet.
For me it is a day of great joy since the demonstrations of affection are manifested from the moment you get up in the morning until nightfall. Whether or not you have gifts, receiving the simple pleasure of a congratulation is a great joy for me.
Other simple things that give me joy is Christmas, the entire month of December I spend with joy, thinking about how I am going to decorate the house, the Christmas tree, the gifts, and everything that includes receiving the new year.
Family and/or friend gatherings make me happy, eating a piece of cake, having a cup of delicious coffee in the morning, small details like a drawing that one of my grandchildren draws for me.
Listen to music, bathe in the rain, drink tap water, sing in the shower and I can continue writing but I have to finish the publication hehe.
Thank you friend @ericvancewalton for this iniciative.
