Happiness is in the little things

Many times we think that we can only be truly happy when we achieve the big goals; when we get the money, the relationship, the job, the luxury vacation... But what if we start to notice the simple daily things that bring us joy?

Once I heard an advise: to write a list of the things that give me pleasure, and do at least one per day, savouring it with all by presence. For example, some things of my list: 


  •  feel the soft wind on my face;
  •  dancing like no one is watching;
  •  floating on the water;
  •  the sound of birds singing;
  •  the touch of velvet;
  •  refreshing the decor of my house;
  •  fresh flowers;


and so on...


By immersing myself and be truly present while doing the simple things that I love, I feel grateful and happy, moment after moment. 


Try it for yourself, because happiness is in the little things.
