Happiness is being with you
Happiness is…
Kids spending time with their granny
…seeing both grandmother and kids happy to spend time together eating cake on an afternoon. All of the laughing and enjoying themselves while savoring some tasty treats in air-con comfort.
…enjoying watching the kids acting silly and appreciating their presence in our lives. Making various facial expressions and laughing to their sides ache while trying to outsmart each other.
At the park together
…watching the sunset together at the park and seeing the clouds pass by. Having fun just being together with each other.
…observing the flora and fauna around you while enjoying the gentle breeze blowing against your face.
The boys playing at the playground
… going up and down and up and down while playing on a see-saw with your brother. Laughing gleefully as you get shaken back and forth.
…not having a care in the world and enjoying every single moment of play with your siblings.
A yellow bloom
… being privilege to have the chance to sit and pause and enjoy the beauty of the flowers around me. To indulge in macro photography and fine tune my photography skills.
… being able to take time out to de-stress and re focus when it starts getting chaotic at home.
Potted plant at the flower dome
…being able to enjoy the simple pleasures in life and taking note of the beauty that surrounds you. Looking at the splash of color and also how everything comes together to make the perfect arrangement.
What is happiness to you?

I find happiness in solitude, and I find happiness in large crowds. I find happiness when I visit my family and friends, and when I sing. I find happiness when I “play” with fresh flowers and fresh fruit/cookies and then deliver creations to other people, and I find happiness when they take the time to give us a 5-star review on the ‘net. I find happiness when I walk Abbie in the Arizona mornings or evenings, when I gaze at the moon and the stars. I find happines when I am thankful that I can walk, talk and chew gum at the same time. I guess happiness is everywhere. (oh. yes, I find happines when I prove I’m human by clicking on the banana!)!!!

Happiness is family, watching the children grow and learn new things. Happiness is an enemy to worry and stress.
Best,
