What Makes You Happy? (3/1/15)

Dear MEDL,

I had a lazy day today doing nothing but binge-watch 'Bones.' Tonight my family, friends & I are going to fish at a beach.

"Day 3: What makes you happy?"

Many things make me put a smile on my face. These many things include being surrounded with positive people, writing in my journal/reading a book, cooking/baking a scrumptious treat and learning new things.

As much as I suck at it, cooking/baking always entertains me. It makes me feel like a witch when I mix a lot of ingredients and turn it into a delectable dish.

Writing in my journal/blogs makes me happy because someday when I'm an adult with a job and a second family I can look back at how I was at this age. I can also express my creativity in words.

Reading books is a beautiful method of experiencing creative works in the form of words. The main reasons why reading books makes me happy is because you can escape from a horrible situation and play another character for a while.

Of course, learning new things would be on this list. I figure that knowing how to do certain things can shape a person's character.

And finally, surrounding yourself with positive people will also cause you to be positive. I find that the most positive people whom I know are my friends, family and teachers.

I'd like to ask you, "What makes you happy?"
Is it your passion for science/art? Is it also positive people like your closest friends? I'd really like to know.


Thank you for reading today's post!
