There is nothing better than the best feelings in the world. It's hard to describe them, but when you feel them, you don't want to let them go. When it comes to the best feeling ever, different opinions might arise. Some may think they come from the small things, while others believe that only grandiose feats deliver them. Everyone is different, so it is not strange why the best feeling comes differently to everyone.

When looking at the best feelings a human can experience, it’s important to understand that we have different values. For some, this joy comes from waking up early and seeing that they still have time to go back to sleep. To others, the best feeling in the world is sitting indoors while raindrops fall on the windows, creating an atmosphere of calmness and relaxation.

If you are still wondering what is the best feeling in the world, the internet did so too. A user on the popular community group AskReddit did ask a question that touches upon the topic of the finest feelings in the world. Below, we have compiled a list of the best answers. If you agree with other opinions — leave an upvote. On the other hand, if you have your own feeling that you would like to share — do so in the comments below.

    I had a friend many years ago who was quite a heavy drinker who would have some monster bets on horses when quite drunk (he earned good money and never lost more than he could afford), if he won, the drunk him would get home and hide money all over his house - in cushions, under carpets and matresses, in tins in holes dug in his garden and in the attic, even in the sugar / coffee / tea jars in the kitchen. Long story short, he got quite ill and had to come off the booze, during which time I, and other friends sort of looked after him ; during this time he decided to look for some of this cash by himself. I turned up one morning to find him with about £500 that he'd found. Over the next 6 weeks, we found a further £4000 in various places and once we found someone with a metal detector, found another £1000 buried around the garden. Sadly no longer with us, he was a delightful chap who organised his own funeral and paid for the party afterwards. Jeremy, you are sorely missed old friend xx

    Not the exact same thing, but I remember the first time I heard my favourite song (everybody talks by neon trees). It was my seventh grade choir class, a few days/weeks in when we did karaoke for fun. One of the eighth graders who I was desperate to impress and had a minor crush on requested jt and everyone else got excited. We did it pretty much every free day after that and I really do have a fondness for the song in a sentimental way. I still request it occasionally and it's a favourite in my class even now

    That might have been one of the happiest days of my life. My parents already told me they were personally going to take care of financing my education, but I took care of that myself. I wasn't going to be in debt and I made my parents so proud. It was probably the happiest I have ever been."

    Sadly, the reality is that the majority of Higher education establishments worldwide can afford to educate young people who have a glimmer of ambition, intellect, drive and academic ability for FREE (regardless of what they say, most of these long standing establishments have millions, if not billions in reserves, regardless of how much they plead poverty), the reason they DON'T is for control - political, financial and social. Cynical doesn't even start to scratch the surface ....

    "For me, it's something a little bit different. When a sick animal comes in, and you're able to take the pain and the fear away by treating them, the look of palpable relief on their face is pretty much the greatest thing in the world. I've seen animals that were clenched up, thrashing about, and striking randomly at people they normally cared about, but because they were in so much pain they couldn't differentiate what was happening. The moment they're able to get over that edge, to where they realize they're gonna make it through, is something that words can't really describe. The satisfaction of happy owners, some who know their best friend is going through a lot of pain, but can't help, and they get to see their friend come through it is a huge bonus as well."

    Surprised Kid In The Christmas Morning Receiving Presents "Waking up Christmas morning as a 6-12-year-old.

    Those 6 mornings were just freaking magical. I don't think anything can touch pure, unadulterated happiness.

    Sure I had my wedding day, and I was very, very happy, but there's always a tinge of grown-up worry, you know? Maybe she won't show, or maybe someone will do something dumb, or maybe it won't work out in the long run.

    "I once was on a very full flight where I had an aisle seat near the back of the plane. A little later, another guy took the seat in the middle of our three-seat row.

    The plane kept filling up and the attendants kept making announcements about how it was a full flight, and so on. After a while, the boarding passengers started to trickle in and my row-mate and I dared to share a mutual look. It was a look that said, "This might happen".

    We gazed intently as all the other seats on the plane were filled and then finally as if by some magnificent nod of approval from the Universe, the attendant closed the door. My row-mate and I shared a celebratory look that spoke volumes before he moved, triumphantly, over to the window seat. Not a word was spoken."
