You know that plain happiness that fills your body and mind instantly and suddenly? What makes you feel that? It doesn't matter if the good sensation doesn't last much. Just name one thing that makes you feel fulfilled and satisfied. My thing might sound a little stupid, but everytime I eat a BigMac I feel that way. Hahaha! It also happens when I ride a rollercoaster. Of course it doesn't last much, but these things make my happiness for a while. What about you?

Hi friend, There are somany occasions that make me happy. When i enter to the college, and saw my friends, i will become happy. Also when my girl friend said me hello, its also make my mind happy. But that happy didn't expressed by me. Just show a ego. Just for fun..... When I enter to the college canteen and there is porota (A breakfast item in india) and have salna (curry of beef) i will become happy. Because salna didn't last for more times. Because its we get by free. Thats why its doesn't exist and also becoming me happy. In college any professor is taken leave, we become very happy, and start enjoying with girls. Also again happy.... College life it full of enjoyment. In short it is happy every time..... When Happy moments come, at first it expressed on the face. And create a small smile on lips....

A big mac does the same for me, lol. Something that really puts a smile on my face is when I'm in here working my fingers to the bone & the hubs shows up with a cup of coffee or a snack for me. Love that. Pure, simple happiness there.

I am already generally a happy sort however I must say that my Ozzie cat makes me emotionally happy when I can pet him and he is social feeling. Never have figured out why he affects me so. He does though. His picture is on my profile page. We both have survived a fire with a bit of damage and we are both vastly improved. My Ozzie cat is the love that raises my happiness level.

Yes, I love surprises too. And I forgot to say when I created the discussion that I also love the sensation of buying/receiving clothes and shoes!

Well, that is just so good for you. My daughter gives me that feeling sometimes. She's my pride and joy. I still can't believe I helped bring her to the world sometimes.

I bet they do, grandpa! But I was more talking about the "temporary happiness" we get with silly stuff, just like the BigMac example I gave. What has this effect on you? :)

Okay then the bells and whistles rining and sounding when I get a decent hit on a slot machine at the casino. My tummy gets all tingly, my heart flutters, then my heart drops as I know it's not a HUGE win. Hahaha!

When I see something beautiful, it does something to me. It could be anything, the gracefulness of a cat jumping up on a shelf, a rose bloom, a sunset, a snow-covered mountain, a waterfall, clouds over the ocean, a beautiful picture or piece of art...I just go all gooey inside.

I always love the feelings, when something I really didnt expect to happen, happens to me at some unexpected hours. That feeling cant be expressed in words and I also really dont know why I get excited so much also.

A smile on my 17 month old grandson's face. A sip of 'good' coffee. The realization that I have finished something (Adult ADD, long story) and it is correct. Those things put a happy smile on my face and in my heart.

the only thing, or maybe one thing which makes me happy is when someone remembers to text me especially my kids cause i am quite far from them and is needing some care or love, haha!!^^but even a text, just one text will do, i love, you, take care, good night, sweet dreams, or even hi or hello, or some other text form which means greeting, oh i miss my kids cause every weekends or every the other weekends, my gosh, i miss them...teachers are more close to them than me i suppose, 8 hours a day they are with my kids and me just 2 days a week or less..yeah..less..that thing really makes me happy ..thanks!!^^
