I do not like going off on a rant in my posts, but I am tired of people complaining about how miserable their life is and doing nothing about it. I try to be the supportive friend. I listen to them complain, give a little advice, and hope they decide to finally act and make themselves happy.
Yesterday I had a conversation with a friend about until you are truly happy with yourself you cannot bring another person in to share your life. They claim they will never be able to accomplish this because they do not know what makes them happy. I was asked how do I know what makes me happy and what does make me happy. I find it very easy to spit out a few things that make me happy. I do not understand how someone cannot figure out what makes them happy.
To end on a happy note, here are a few of my happy things.
Family, friends who support me in all my choices, spending time with my nieces, spring flowers, fall days, the calm before the storm, music that lifts my mood when I'm having a bad day, simple things, a good book, and much more!
What are a few of the things which make you happy?

Oh... I can name several:
Snarky comments, a freshly written program that works on the first try, meeting someone with an open mind and good conversation, bacon, rainy afternoons, indie rock and Mississippi blues
Hmm... let's see.
Beating a tough opponent in a video game, having an engaging conversation/debate, spending time with my godkids or niece, getting engrossed in a good book, talking to that special friend, writing some awesome SQL code, and having some quality me time. ;)
