What are your favorite moments in life? What things or people make you happy just thinking about them? We all need some joy in our lives, so I´m curious as to where everyone else finds theirs.
For me, I find joy in simple things, like having a picnic in the ruins on a beautiful sunny day, surrounded by history, with my baby laying on the grass and my husband playing futball with my toddler. That is a perfect moment for me, one that I can hold onto in bad times.
What about you? What gives you that happy thought to hang onto in the darkest moments?

For me, it would be playing with my 3 yr old nephew, or BBQ-ing with my family and just enjoy catching up with our own funny stories around the dinner table. That would do the trick for me. I'm more of a family person so tend to cherish the moments with my family a lot. The fact that I don't live with them makes every moment more special. Darn, this discussion is making me miss them.. :(

My boys are my joy. Remembering all the little things they do. The hugs, the kisses, the teddy bears given to me. All those precious little moments are what gets me through the rough times. I just close my eyes and think about them, and all is right in my world.
