Where's Your Happy Place?

Do you have a place where you can go and just be completely happy at? For me it's out at this county park near where I live. There a creek that runs along and we always walk in the water. There are always a bunch of huge trees that have died and fallen over into the woods. We find walking sticks and walk down the creek. We went there yesterday and there were just tons of butterflies. I am just completely at peace when I am there. I want to go out there again and have a picnic. We have already done that a few times this year. I also want to get a butterfly net and try to catch some of the butterflies. Where is your happy place?

This is going to make me more depressed than I already was feeling and maybe my answer to this is part of the problem. I do not have a happy place. I wish I did then maybe I could find some peace and quiet my mind. That is the thing I really need to do the most.

There are a number of places where I feel so happy and relaxed when I am there. Yet, one of the ways I often do whenever I have the time, and whenever the weather is favorable, is to drive out to the country-side. I always feel very happy and very relaxed when I see the calm and scenic beauty of the country-side, the green fields, the ranches, cattles walking over the fields, the little streams flowing down the fields, and all. Oh, really very enjoyable.

Nice. My town has a huge bridge that crosses a river. I find it a great place for relaxation and meditation.

I guess I'd have to say a particular hike I used to take. It offered much tranquility and was a ways from any activity. It was only 4 miles and I loved it. I could hike in to the lake and then back out. Since I am shut in, sometimes I walk it in my mind. It kinda gives me a break!

My happiness can be anywhere.., I am happy when I got to beautiful places., but nothing makes me happier than being with my entire family at home.., doing and sharing simple things and laugh heartily over silly things.. Oh how i miss my siblings..=(

My happy place is the seaside. Everytime when i'm tired about my work, the place i love best is go to the seaside. Blue sky, boundless sea, sunshine, gentle breeze, all of those make me comfortable and enjoyful.

The mind, for within there lies what you want to do, what you will do and what you don't want to do. Besides if we say one location and unexpected circumstances occur, then we'd have to say another place.

I think my happy place is in my elementary school. There, my memories always fill me with lots of emotions that I even cry out of joy. I miss my childhood days because I was separated from my family at an early age. I have to study in another province and I have the opportunity to visit my family only thrice a year. That was really lonesome for me but being separated from my family that early made me a responsible boy in my own way and I became independent because I have to do my things alone without asking help from my parents and siblings. I always cherish the days when I will go to my elementary school to play with my friends and we will run freely in the grass and chase each other under the heat of the sun. After a tiresome game, we will have our snacks and then watch our favorite TV shows like BTX Neo, Power Rangers and others.

Unfortunately, i don't have any. It's kinda difficult to find a quiet place around me, or nearby to where my house it. If i really want a quiet spot, it's going to be miles away, which is inconvenient for me. So in order to adjust my mood, i will take slow long walks, walking to somewhere i don't know where i'm, before taking a bus back home again. I wish i can find my own happy spot, because i want a place, to call it mine.

My happy place is a coffee bar near my house, where i can drink with my friends and sometimes read books by myself. I love it!!!

My happiest place is my home,wherein live is everywhere.Am contented to see my son playing around the ground holding his feeding bottle,my sisters chatting with her peers and my parents cooking food for us.There is no relaxing and convenient place such our own home.
