Smile

Here are a few things that give me a 'feel good' feeling, sure to get my undivided attention, and bring a smile to my face and a happy, peaceful feeling:

• The sight of a big jet plane taking off from a runway in the distance. I've been fascinated with planes since I was a toddler. "Mama, Daddy, AIPANE! AIPANE!!!" was commonly heard from me even if I only heard one overhead.
• A BIG flag - any flag basically- rippling and undulating in the wind.
• Windows down in the car, my face leaning into the wind-preferably with me in the passenger seat so I can close my eyes and enjoy it. I'm such a dog, huh?
• A sunset
• A soft breeze caressing my face and blowing through my hair
• Wiggling my bare toes in springy grass
• The laughter of a small child; the giggle of an infant
• A hug from my daughter
• The feel of a baby in cuddled close in my arms
• Remembrance of a kiss full of passion
• The sound of bagpipes
• Dolphins
• Waves lapping or crashing on the shore
• The beauty of a waterfall
• An email from a friend I haven't heard from in a while
• A new commenter on my blog
• A song on the radio that reminds me of someone special in my heart
• Being in a church - an instantaneous feeling of peace, calm, and warmth seeping through me from head to foot, like warm honey.
• The purring of a cat (surprise, surprise!)
• Floppy doggy and bunny ears- I've just GOT to touch and play with them, too!

What are some of yours?
