It is crazy how much I have talked about my nieces and nephews during the course of this project. I think I have as my mom would say “Whipped a dead horse,” but every word I said was true. They make me truly happy, but that is not what this blog is about. This blog is about expanding on what makes me happy. Everything I have said was concentrated around family, friends, poetry and music but I have noticed that these are no the only things that make me happy.
If I was to sit here at this computer and list every thing that made me happy my fingers would shrivel up and fall off. Some people need big expensive things to make them happy but I need things like extra sour pickles, soft white snow, a trip to the Rocky Mountains and a good book to go along with hot cup of crisp apple cider on a cold winter night.
I remember going to an Oakridge Boys concert having no idea who they were, but when they started to sing I realized that they sang some of my favorite songs. I got a look on my face that must have been priceless because my mom could not look away from me. The pleasure that that gave my mom made me happier than the whole concert did.
I wish that everyone in the world could be happy with the littler things, because maybe there would be less murder and pain caused by people trying to get to the top.
