Good Morning Dear!Well today is technically day 6 of the blog challenge but I unfortunately missed yesterday but for a good reason! I had the day off yesterday to get a "tune up." I went to the dentist, got a physical, got an eye exam, had my blood drawn for some tests(and almost passed out- NOT A FUN EXPERIENCE), and it was my moms birthday so we took her to dinner after all that! Plus, during my eye exam they dilated my eyes so I couldn't see things close up hence, why I skipped my blog yesterday. On another note, here is day 5 that is technically day 6 but I will just pick up where I left off!
Day 5: What are the 5 things that make you happiest?
Wow, there are so many things that make me happy so I will try to limit them as much as possible!
1. David, my husband, makes me extremely happy! Choosing to marry him is the best choice I've ever made! I know I've talked about him in a previous post so I'll keep it short here but I cannot imagine life without my husband. He truly loves me well and really prefers me over himself to meet me where I need him emotionally, spiritually, and physically. He really loves the Lord and because of that our marriage and household has been blessed! We definitely are best friends and some of my favorite times in our relationship is when we're acting like kids and cracking up and being goofy. He is my pride and my joy! He makes me happy without a doubt!
2. Animals and babies make me happy! They are both very cute and both melt my heart. Animals do the funniest things and it is my dream to cuddle every single one! Lol Even bears and tigers and dolphins. I don't know why the Lord has put this huge love for animals in my heart but He has, and though I don't understand it, I embrace it. But even more than animals is babies! OMG I can imagine babies right now and I want to squeeze them all! To me, the chunkier the baby, the better. I love kissing their cheeks and watching them take in the world around them! I don't have any kids yet but David always says that when we do, they will smothered with love and I agree! I will not be able to put them down!
3. Traveling is so much fun and definitely makes me happy! As a child, I remember first hearing that the land where Jesus walked(Israel) is still around and I became extremely fascinated with the fact that one day, I could see it. From then on it's been a dream to go there and to see what else exists in the world. I love seeing new things and experiencing different cultures. To think that there are people doing a totally different way of life than I am is so interesting. What is it like to live in their house or go to their school? What are their favorite foods or hobbies? What are their dreams and what are their families like? Not only that, but seeing the sites and the history in a city is something I really enjoy! I look forward to traveling more in my life because it's one of my favorite things for sure!
4. Inventing, creating, art. All of these make me happy! I love experimenting with all kinds of art. I have a couple of projects at the moment such as photography/videography, art-journaling, knitting/crocheting, and typography. Over the years I've developed new interests in different types of art and others have faded away but whatever I'm learning or experimenting with, I love! Just the feeling of inspiration and then composing is extremely gratifying to me. I love learning how to make something and making it my own. When I create it really connects me to the ultimate creator. He is so creative in how he made each one of us so different from the other. Even how He made every animal and plant different, every snowflake different and even insects. Sometimes I've just browsed Google and have stumbled upon something that He has created that I have never heard of before (for example: Google rainbow bark and light pillars and check it out. How is that even possible?). Anyway, I love creating!
5. Finally, I know this may sound cheesy and kind of like...really? but the Sun makes me really happy! I could never live in a cloudy place because without the sun I would literally become depressed. I love it's warmth and the golden light it gives off at just the right time and it makes everything better and picks me up when I'm sick, cold, uninspired, or down. I even gave up the big office at work so I can have an office with a window that lets me see through a window to outside. I just gotta have me some Sun!
Well, those are just 5 out of the hundreds of things I love but those are probably my top 5! What are some things that you love?
