Grateful

What are 5 everyday things that bring you happiness?

Many ordinary things bring me happiness. I am a very simple person, and I do not have a lavish lifestyle.

The first thing that brings me happiness is my phone. I know that’s a terrible answer, but it’s the truth. It’s just a lifeline to the outside world, and I’m grateful for it.

The second thing that brings me happiness is my car. I love having my own car, being able to get into my car and drive wherever I need to go, whenever I need to go there. I have had so many cars over the years, and most of them needed repairs quite a bit of the time, but the car I have now is not like that. And I am very grateful for it.

The third thing that brings me happiness is my dog, Emmy. She is my companion, and she showers me with love every single day when I come home from work. She barks when I need to be notified that someone is nearby or that something isn’t right. She is a sweetheart, and I am very grateful for her.

The fourth thing that brings me happiness is living in the country. I have neighbors, but they aren’t right next to me, and I also have a bit of land around my house. I also enjoy living beside the water, and I’m very grateful for that..

The fifth thing, and the most important thing, that brings me happiness is my children and grandchildren, and my extended family. I love my family very much and would be lost without them. I am so very grateful for them.

There are more things that I could list, but these were the five that stood out to me tonight. I am grateful to God for all of them, and for all the many blessings that I have in this life.
