Things that have to do with my family really make me happy. If things are going well with them then I am very happy. My granddaughter is married and has a baby now. She has had some medical problems and just went in to get herself evaluated. It came out well and she is on meds now to help. My daughter made a break with the creepy guy she had been seeing toward the end of this year. So that's makes me very happy. When the money lasts to the end of the month, that makes me happy too.

Many times it is just that. Things we take for granted.

How true, if we do not treasure what we have now, it might just disappear and you would regret it. So treasure what you have now.

Well what doesn't kill us makes us stronger. We must endure the rainy days in order to appreciate the sunny ones. Apart from living comfortably, success in business, what makes me happy is myself, peace as well as a piece of mind. Knowing I am part of a bigger picture. Enjoying being by myself as well as with others. Just being comfortable in my own skin. I suppose that is why I appear to most as just a Happy-Go-Lucky kind of person. When crap happens I think duck and try to just let it slide right off me.

Thank you iwrite and back at ya. I wish you for you much happiness as well. I know that sometimes there can be one, two even three things in a row that seem to be a damper on an otherwise upbeat role. Making it a bit more difficult at times, than others to remain optimistic but it is for the better. When all comes down at once, I retreat to the forest for a walk. Upon returning, I have a completely different prospective. It really works! All the best iwrite.

EvrWonder you are right, since I am still alive so I would be strong today. Sometimes it is just hard to control your emotions when the things just happen to strike that the precious moment. I just hope you would remain happy always.

I also have realized something in the past year. I dont have school pressures anymore to keep my mind busy and my parents have laid back on their "demands". So for that past few months, Ive been able to really have lots of "me" time and focus on the things that I am concerned for, interested in and consequently what makes me really happy. I realized that having time makes me happy. I mean people that I know bestow the privilege of giving me their time, I deeply appreciate it. I guess what I mean to say is Im most happy when I have my friends, acquaintances or people in general spend their time with me and we would have adventures, memories, or just learn from each other. I have never been into material things but I also didnt think that I wanted the things that couldnt be easily given or quantified. I hope 2011 is a great year for me.^_^ Goodluck to you too!

Hi iwrite, I too have had a mixed year, some awfully sad memories and some good memories.But on the whole I have come to realise that we have to be prepared for all eventualities in life, nothing is permanent, the only thing permanent is change - all the best and have a Great New Year

Simple things. I'm not a kind of a material person. Simple things like being with my family, playing with my dog, eating my fave foods and being with the people that love me as well.

What makes me happy is my bf and my friends i make throughout the year. I'm both happy and glad to have them around, because they taught me alot of things about life. Together with them, we gone through tough times, happy moments and getting to form a strong tie. It's especially the case for my bf and his love is what keeps me going no matter how tired i'm.

My boyfriend, my cats (Goldie and Lucky mostly), reading, singing, watching "Dr. G Medical Examiner" (she is so cool), writing, and stopping to "smell the roses" (literally and metaphorically speaking). There are a lot of things, people and animals that make me happy because if I don't turn to what makes me happy, I know that I will be sad.
