To counter the Bitch & Moan list, I thought about the unexpected stuff that makes me super happy.
It’s my Bliss List:
- Opening a book and discovering that the chapters have titles.
- Finding money in a purse or jacket pocket. It’s like winning the lottery, even though it was my own money in the first place.
- Turning on the radio to an all-time favorite song.
- Spotting someone reading a book I really like. It feels like we could become instant friends but I never dare to interrupt their reading time.
- Thinking I missed the train or bus only to find out it had a slight delay and still being able to hop on.
- Spotting a new stem or flower on one of my plants. Makes me feel like a proud plant mama and a personal thank-you for caring.
- Doing a puzzle in pen and not having to cross anything out.
