Popular Post Rush17 Posted October 26, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 26, 2020 I wanted to ask what the center is on anyone's happiness who is willing to share. What makes you happy in your daily or life in general. I thought maybe sharing our happinesses may help others struggling to cope in this challenging times. Personally. I am sitting at my favorite coffee shop right now listening to music and sipping on a latte. This isn't an every day pleasure but once every week or two it is a splendid treat that brings me immense happiness and a feeling of well being. I have read a lot of books here - I've also done a lot of writing here. This is like a second home too me as weird as that sounds. I personally have been struggling with the ups and downs of our world current predicament. This is the first time I've been able to enjoy my coffee from here inside. It is remarkable how life feels so normal despite knowing it's not. Feels nice I must say. Trying to cope has been a challenge without the ability to do something meaningful. I have unfortunately been off work since April and it doesn't look like my work will be returning in the near future. The search continues for a temporary replacement job. Just curious how you ladies and gents all cope and what brings happiness in your lives. Perhaps your hobbies or passions can spark something in others! Wishing you all well during these trying times. 2 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rush17 Posted October 26, 2020 Author Share Posted October 26, 2020 Two photos from inside the coffee shop. There is only four people in here including the barrista but it's nice and cozy still. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicken. Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Playing team sports brings a feeling of unity, comradery, and friendship that gives me great joy and happiness, soccer in particular these days. Generally any physical activity gives me a euphoric feeling as well so I just enjoy exercise. I have a similar feeling when I am with my family; spending time with those that support you unequivocally and want the best for you is the greatest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JM_ Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 My relationship with my wife. Raising a daughter. Sometimes work. Coping, in winter thats easy. Skiing, as much as we can fit in. Watching the Canucks. Seeing snow on the mountains has given me a pretty big perk up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-AJ- Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 There's no doubt that my faith is the most unlimited source of happiness in my life, though I would be lying if I said I didn't sometimes ignore it a bit too much. I often find that when I spend more time reading the Bible or praying I get surprised at how much my mood and perspective improves. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smashian Kassian Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 (edited) Went in with my siblings + parents and bought a house over the Summer. Moved in beginning of September. I'm extremely fortunate. I live with my brother/sister & her BF. Its alot more responsibility, but just trying taking care of things day-to-day & trying improve the place brings great satisfaction. My brother also has a dog (big bernese mountain dog) that has sorta become mine aswell. Having him around everyday is awesome. I got back to playing hockey recently - 3 on 3 - with some close friends & a few guys off my beer league team. Its a small group but we play twice a week. Been a really nice change from earlier in the pandemic. Love being out there skating again. Also I'm making plans to do a bunch of work on my old truck after Winter. Gunna be putting on the road soon to get through the snow, but I got some ideas for it afterward - so that should be a fun project. Then just having a couple of my close friends to talk to & hang around with. Now that I got the place we usually have a beer & play games once a week. Overall things are pretty good since the move. Can't complain! Great thread BTW! @Rush17 Edited October 26, 2020 by Smashian Kassian 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
