Slice of Heaven: 101 Things That Make Me Happy

I have this instead of a bucket list. Not being able to complete one’s bucket list isn’t comforting at all, especially when you don’t have the means. So I made a list of random things that make me happy. This is not something to compel others. I don’t even know if anybody reads my post. That’s okay. I have fun writing. This one is just a reminder for me that I could find happiness even in ordinary moments, in ordinary things. This reminds me not to set my bar too high when it comes to happiness, which I normally do. I want to laugh to my heart’s content. I want to smile with my eyes.
