Give yourself some happiness

Thursday, January 27, 2011

No no no. I am not a guru of happiness. My life is still a combination of misery and happiness. Some days my mood seems plunging near the abyss, other days it leaps up to the brink of heaven. What can I say? I am just a human full of love, hate and stupidity.
Still, I can see clearly that happiness is more friendly to me than many others I knew or encountered.  I can find happiness in various occasions, even at some terrible moments happened to me. And that has nothing to do with age, gender, beauty, money and education.  So, I want to share with you my easy ways to bring happiness to yourself, too.  But there is no guarantee all will work the same to an individual. You have to find out yourself that which way suits yours.

• Watch your favorite movies
• Watch favorite TV programs
• Listen to favorite radio programs
• Talk to people you like
• Read any books you like or you are interested in
• Think of your good old days
• Laugh at yourself when you unintentionally fall into some embarassing situations, such  as trip over your toe, slip at the stairs, miss the bus at the bus stop, break the heels of your shoes, etc.
• Laugh freely and loud when you feel funny. No need to suppress it all the time
• Give other people your friendly smile (  not everyone, though). You may just have to use your own judgement/experience a bit. But if you are  not so wool-headed, you sure can feel who will not jump on you and bite your head off after giving him/her your good hearted smile)
• Don't think of making yourself look good or neat  from head to toes all the time.
• Wear comfy clothes
• Talk to/hug your pets
• Try some new menus or foreign dishes
• Go to new places> if you are a party person, why not visit a church or a temple or if you never know what inside a pub, get yourself in but no need to jump into a keg of beer or spirit if you are not a drinker.
• Sing a song no matter your voice can make a demon curse.
• Walk under the rain( make sure no thunderstorm)
• Get up early in the morning to feel fresh air and see sun rise---especially you are a regular late-bird.
• Prolong your time in bed until late morning or noon---especially when you are always in a hurry to leave your bed.
• Sip coffee, tea, juice or wine as you prefer and appreciate the brew while leaving your mind empty.




• Feed your tummy as you truly want, forget what nutritional experts tell you.

Now I believe you may get some ideas which one suits you. So, try it.
