Yup, another post about happiness. In a blog post last week, I invited you to write about happiness and link back to my blog. When I am focused on a topic, I see it everywhere – in my flower garden, books, quotes and on the back of cereal boxes! If you have a tip, secret or awareness about happiness and care to share, leave a comment below!
Here are a list of words that immediately take me to a good zone. Ready? (Feel free to add your own to this list!)

- Bask
- Bliss
- Dance
- Engage
- Dream
- Move
- Laugh
- Learn
- Travel
- Read
- Sing
- Share
- Thank
- Listen
- Appreciate
- Blog (of course)
For each of these I can write a full post about how this word brings me a sense of happiness …but that would take the mystery out of it.
What words give you a happiness tingle?

Thank you for including my posts on your related articles.
My list has many overlaps with yours, a few others include:
Love, hug, rain on the roof and fire on the hearth, read in the sun and/or by the fire, coffee with a friend, cry with a friend, joy, listen to a child laugh, laughter with friends, singing in the shower, candle by the bubble bath . . .
OK – so those weren’t single words – poetic license!
