Notice and Note System

What makes you happy?
I'm happy right now because my life offers the littlest things...like

the smell of sun kissed grass...
the sweet breeze...
the sound of bebop as you sit on your back patio...
the taste of pink lemonade....
the sight of annual ice blocks on the bottom of a hill...
the quiet sound of a popsicle crunching in between your front teeth....

The feeling of not caring about whether or not your hair is frizzy.
The feeling you get when you simply glance at the sunset and get taken away.

These are the kind of things that should make everyone happy.... these are the kind of things people should wish for on their birthday....although they cant!

Well... I don't know.. I guess you ca get what you want if you just notice and note.....

 an example could be that I want an MP3 player for my birthday...
because I love the sound of music:
The sound of Ingrid Michaelson or techno sounding off through my head.
I want the movie "UP" because I have great memories from watching it.
I want my nails done because I love it when my Mom is there sitting beside me, talking to me as I sit with my feet in hot water.
I want Krispy Kreme donuts because I love the feel of sticky hands I get from the glossy glaze...

I just want these small moments... they make life better...no matter what. :)

So today walk throughout your day and mentally note every little thing that makes you happy. Don't start big.
Don't think. Just do it... notice and note. And by the end of the day.. you just might have a list like this! :)
Don't worry, be happy....
