Sometimes it is the little things that bring me joy. I love flowers but they are really hard to find in the winter. It doesn't snow where I live but does get cold, rainy and cloudy. Pansies are a winter flower that last through the cold season. So whenever I see the bright, colorful cheerful Pansies growing in gardens, it really brings me JOY. And on a dreary, dull winter day Pansies just bring me Joy.
What are some of the little ways that you find joy and enjoyment? How do you enjoy life?

Communicating with my loved ones and make the most out of life. I do consider putting positive outcome and at the end of the day, with some ways and mean find unwinding activities with my family such as going out to dinner or mainly going to the mall with them feels a good enjoyment from all the hassle of work.

True, putting all context in a positive note comes better opportunities regardless if you are experiencing tough times.
Thanks for your response.

Watching Romantic movies gives me joy, I love autumn and Spring and always looking forward to it.
I love receiving roses. Your right, simple things can bring joy to our lives.
And having my family around.

My husband buys me a single rose every so often. I dry each rose and now have a vase full of dried roses. They will last a long time.
It's easy to dry roses - just tie some yarn or string to hang them upside down from a lamp or light fixture. Make sure the rose is not touching the wall, etc. It takes about 10-14 days for the rose to dry completely. And they do look nice, even when dried. Still look romantic.

I enjoy my life by doing the things I love to do. Such as, writing on mylot, watching movies, enjoying my garden which I thankfully can have all year round because I live on a tropical island. I just planted roses a week ago and they are already sprouting leaves. I'm so happy about that. I also enjoy skyping with my daughters and my grandkids. I just love to enjoy each day that God has given me to have on this earth. We all know it can be taken away in a minute so I'm learning to live life like its my last day on earth. Enjoy and have a beautiful weekend!

It is also the little things that makes me happy. Last night we celebrated my mom's 80th birthday and just seeing her happy brought huge smiles to my face!

As Rodin said,beauty is everywhere.It is not she that is lacking to our eye,but our eyes which fail to perceive her.
The weather here in winter is similar to yours,so it has been cold for these days.Till today,when I get up,I see the bright sunshine which is through my window,I feel happy at once.I do love sunshine very much.
Wish joy be with you always.Have a nice day.
Ps:The flower looks fragrant.Thank you for sharing.
