A little slice of happy!

Let’s face it, we gotta find a little happiness where and when we can!  Like being the first to dip your spoon into the peanut butter jar, a good tomato and mayo sandwich.  Small little smiles!

Researchers gave people a huge list of options, and asked them to rank each one. Here are the top ten . . .

1. A bright blue sky on a sunny day.

2. Seeing a beautiful landscape.

3. Kittens and puppies.

4. Sitting in your house or apartment right after you’ve cleaned it.

5. Going out for a nice dinner.

6. Receiving a compliment.

7. Someone smiling at you.

8. Booking a vacation.

9. Cuddling or hanging out with a loved one.

10. Thinking back on fond memories.

A few more that just missed the top ten were finding money in your pocket, random acts of kindness, seeing an old friend and hearing a great song come on the radio.

How about some happy?
