The Simple joys of life
The Simple joys of life
So with all the negativity in the world and how it seems life is so stressful and it's hard to find joy in things sometimes, everyone has simple joys that make life great and much more enjoyable to live. Some of my favorite simple joys:
Coming home after a long day and just curling up with a good book and some tea on a rainy day.
Going out to lunch or for coffee with friends or family and just talking trash, shooting the breeze and generally just being comfortable around people you care about.
Family game nights, so simple yet the laughs and camraderie are amazing.
Getting off from work or school and just driving home, favorite music blasting and being happy that the rest of the day or night is yours.
Babysitting my niece and nephew(crazy right? lol), they make me so much more happy and hopeful for the good of life and the good in people.
Going for walks and just being able to smell the air, see the gorgeous sights and hear the sound of birds chirping and being completely lost in your own thoughts.
Taking pictures of zany nonsense and not caring whose watching or not.
I undestand this is a weird thread, but post your simple joys/discuss

The part in a Subway sandwich where the meat is all curled together. Waking up at 11 am on a Monday is also pretty great
One of my favorite things is driving honestly. I love driving. Its been about a year since I got my license and I'm still not tired of it. Hell, I never complain about the twenty minute drive to my campus because I actually enjoy it.

Rainy days. I'll pretty much drop whatever else I have planned just to sleep in, watch some movies, and enjoy some soup or tea.
Just spending time with family members.
Being in-the-zone while working out. I get a whole new outlook on my day.
Enjoying a piping-hot bowl of chicken pho, loaded with Sriracha sauce.
Watching B-movies.
Belting out songs in the car.
Play-fighting with my dog, or snuggling with my cat.
Early-morning/ late-afternoon walks in the spring/fall. I love cool weather.
What a nice, happy thread!

Well let's take a look'see.
- I really love to hang out with my best friends(Dreadnaughtx and xB$INx). I know it sounds really cliche, but it's just the truth. These guys are the funniest ever and we can just sit back at my house and just talk for hours; Even about nothing at all. We don't go out and smoke weed or drink or anything. We literally have my T.V. off in my bedroom....and talk. It's so simple and we have the best conversations out of them.
- Helping out my little brother or sister. It may seem like a hard chore, but it feels good knowing I'm doing the best I can to help my younger siblings achieve the best out of their lives. It also puts a smile on my face when they accomplish their goals without the need for my guidance.
- Getting a good grade on a test. Seriously, when I get at least a C or higher I jump for fucking joy.
- Going to the gas station and smelling the gasoline. It's weird, but sometimes it smells good. Don't judge me man...
- Coming home from school or an activity and changing to my pajama bottoms right when I get into my room. I do it constantly and I have a ton of PJ bottoms to choose from. My friends can vouch for me.
- Making peanut butter toast for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Again, my friends can vouch for me on that.
Ya gotta love the simple things in life.

Drinking a case of beer while watching hilarious anime is an easy joy.
A strong South Texas cold front is also unbelievably exhilarating.

Long drives going nowhere, with nothing to do. Just you, a passenger and the music.
I like hugging women. It's weird.
Always being told (by the women) that I smell good.
Having a sibling who understands me instead of sabotaging me.
Being adored.

I prefer a mid-day fap.

Eating.

Most definitely.
I enjoy cooking quite thoroughly, especially if there's a lot of components and it's difficult, even stressful... Eating it afterward is like the orgasm, heh.
I think more than anything I just love playing piano, it's so relaxing when I'm alone and I can just rock back and forth to whatever I'm playing. Sometimes I even play with my head down on the music stand.
In that vein, I love to just sing as awesomely over the top as I want in my rare alone time.
A good shower is always great.... I love bathing, especially if I'm not in a particularly happy place.

I'm vouching, this stuff really happens. Lol
I think this is a really great thread to get to know everyone better and lighten things up a bit. With that being said...
- I really enjoy hangin with the homies.([Killswitch, Dreadnaughtx, and another guy but he does not have an MKO.) These guys are like brothers to me. We have so many good times and laugh so much.
- J-spit, I totally know where your coming from when getting hugged by girls and they say you smell good. I too enjoy this too. Lol
- I also enjoy spending time with a certain girl, even if we only hang out for a few minutes. Everytime I'm with her the world just goes away and nothing really matters except her and those moments with her. Those eyes and smile just melt me. Unfortantley, I dont get to see her very much anymore...
- I enjoy just taking long walks in the city during the night when its quiet. I just walk for awhile listening to my ipod.
- Being the first one at a stop light and feeling like I'm in the fast and the furious (Favorite movie). Light turns green and I speed way ahead of everyone else. (Especially that I have a Mustang now.) Something about the speed that sets opens you up, I know its weird.
- Seeing and making other people smile. Just to know that I brought a little spark of happiness to someone else, especially in these times.

Mid-day fap? I think so.
Anways
-I'm not gonna repeat what Killswitch and B$IN said cause thats the god damn truth. 6-8 years brothers. AMEN.
-Sleeping. By god, I love sleeping.
-Sitting on my porch (ha) and listening to some music on a nice, calm, breezy afternoon
-Staring at the sky imagining being up there. No planes. Just flying among the clouds.
-Going to a cafe or Barnes n Nobles. Nice and calm. Get some coffee or Tea and read a good comic.
I think I got more, but these are my main.

B$IN knows what it is!
I too enjoy making people smile, for in my past all I did was make people walk away.
I also feel B$IN on the hanging with a certain girl, but rarely seeing them. Me and an old friend reconnected and now we're getting back on track. It's odd because she has a boyfriend, but we've both confessed our feelings from the past and she's even noticed other girls being jealous of us talking. Someone may remember that loooooong ago I posted about her and how I wasn't gonna be her friend anymore, but she's more normal than ever. It makes things easier. We're gonna watch the Hip Hop Awards on Thursday and hang ot until she leaves for work. Good times.
-Having money makes me happy.
-Making people happy by simply being me.
-Taking hot showers in the winter, I totally stare at the vapors coming off of me, throw a few punches and chops pretending I'm Smoke. *Me Gusta Face*
-Bustin' a nut.
-Playing loud music.
-Walking and playing loud music.
-Swimming.
-When people don't totally fuck up a gift. (too many times)
-When people actually keep their word. Between a lying neglectful father and various broken promises from other influential adults, I've lived a life of constant disappointment.
-Mozzarella sticks. Feel me!
-Knowing I made a bangin' ass beat!
-The thought of one day raising a little girl/boy.
-I'm currently suspecting my friend's sister of wanting my penis, which is awesome for plenty of reasons.
-Attempting to sing....and succeeding.
-Boobs.
-Drinks with plenty of ice!
-Cheez-Its
-Being called "sexy" by women not related to me.
-Joe. He just rocks at this R&B shit!
-Actually being around my friends.

-Sitting with my son watching any number of his cartoons and watching his facial expressions
-Anytime it's a rainy day and I'm either napping, reading, or playing a game
-Anytime I have a slice of cheesecake, or some pudding, or I'm eating anything peanut butter (especially Reeses lol)
-Whenever I'm hanging out with family and friends, and we're all having a good time and laughing about anything and everything
