Things that make me happy

Someone once asked me what makes me happy and I replied Life. Was I trying to be too smart by giving that answer!!! No. The truth is everything around me brings happiness to me. Let me list a few things that make me feel that I am living life to its fullest.

1. Mom and sister feeding me with their hands regularly –

People find it very strange when they see mom or sis feeding me even though I am not busy. People do ask me – “Are you not old enough to be feed by them like a child?” and I reply that though I am old enough I am still a son and a brother. Though my sister is younger to me, while feeding she becomes my mom and scolds if I do not eat. While this is happening I forget how old I am and only remember that I still have a child in me and they love this child.

2. Dad standing at the foot of the bed and watching me sleep.

Dad has never told verbally that he loves me. But I know that he does. The proof of it is he sneaking into my bedroom and watching me sleep. There have been times when he would talk to me while I am sleeping and express his love. Now you may ask how I know about it if I was sleeping. There have been times when I woke up and pretended to be asleep and there have been times where others have told me about it.

3. Teasing my brother

Oh boy this is the best part of the day. I just enjoy pulling his leg, especially when it comes to the matters of a girl. Every time I do it, he starts blushing and he has this cute smile on his face. That smile makes me feel that my day is complete.

4. Playing with brandy

How can a day pass by without Brandy biting and playing with me!!! It’s her presence and activeness that fills me with energy and makes me want to do more in life. The day doesn’t start well if she does not wish me good morning and gives me a kiss.

5. Looking at a flower

Looking at a flower has always made me happy. I do not know the reason behind it, but every time there is a flower around me I feel calm, confident and positive. Is it the color or the beauty??? I never understood. It’s as if they work on my brain cells and tell me that I am a good person and can do lot more to be a better one. And I am going to work towards it.

While writing this I have realized that the things that really make me happy are all around me. I just have to open my eyes, stretch my arms and I have them. As I said earlier this is just a part of the list of things and there are many more. For now I am not going to struggle to find them as I have found the most important once already. My Family
