Watching people talk about something they’re passionate about and really enjoy, their face just lights up
I'm an introvert, so I'm usually quiet, but nothing brings me more joy and life than talking about what I love and see that people are paying attention
making other people happy. when i really like someone i'll do anything to make them smile and the feeling it brings when i do is amazing :)
My cat-daughter, Luna. Even when she breaks all of my stuff by knocking them off the dresser, i cant be mad at her, she's too cute!
honestly same. I can't be mad at any of our cats, even when they scratch me and give me scars THEIR FACES ARE TOO CUTE (this is not aggressive scratching it happens when we're playing and we haven't cut their nails in a while)
oh i have another. being in a show. cause it's so much more than just a cast and crew. we're literally a family. like today, at rehearsal we were doing blocking with me and a few other people and the rest of the people were working. and i just kinda looked out across the room and saw the crew members painting and vibing to music and everyone in their own little groups smiling and laughing and just having so much fun doing what we love. and this morning i was working some scenes with my friend since we have a few scenes together and we figured out some really good things to do to make the scene amazing. it was such a simple, incredible moment that made me smile because this is why i love theater.
when I did shows at school our stage was in the cafeteria. We had morning rehearsals and sometimes after school rehearsals and stage making if we needed it. In the first show I had a really important character because I was the one who found the zombies lol. I had to peek out from the back curtain and start just saying oh no as I walked to the front of the stage. When I was there I just screamed HELP. But I also played a drama geek in the show so I literally said after that "oh wait no. I can do better than that" and I screamed again. It was hilarious doing that when people started coming in from the buses waiting before they could go to class. It freaked a lot of people out everyday. She show was called Drama Geeks VS Zombie Cheerleaders. It's on playscripts if you want to read it. It's been my favorite show I've been in honestly
The moon. No matter where I am, I always look for it and when I find I just stop what I'm doing and spend about 10 seconds smiling to it and thinking about how incredibly beautiful nature is
When I leave for work in the morning, seeing my wife and our Bulldog peaceful, safe and sound asleep.
And then again coming home, reunited with them after a days work.
Watching people who are good at something, doing the thing they're good at. Woodworking, painting, textiles, playing an instrument, it doesn't matter. I love the see the fruits of someones practice.
A little weird, but people falling over for no reason. You check if they're okay, and then laugh.
My cockatiel singing and bobbing to different tunes. He likes The Killers, Taylor Swift, and Disney. He also really likes the Addams family.
He is adorable, no matter how off key he is
Seeing other people smile, people falling, people getting angry/ crying (mainly little kids), dumb or dark jokes, getting a hug from a friend, getting called pretty or anything in that area and capybaras (and every other cute animal doing dumb things)
remembering summers at my grandparents summer home in HIghland Lakes, NJ
ps. it was log cabin on a tar road. By the 70s it lost the magic due to rich classless people
Music and my dog, a chihuahua corgi mix. Also road trips.
Hiking the forested mountains of western China with live Grateful Dead music playing in my head phones
Making other people happy
Hanging out with my friends who are also neurodivergents because I don't have to pretend to be normal

Me and my best friend laughing from just looking at each other. I don't know if she knows this but she's the only person I can look in the eyes. We can just stare at each other and end up on the ground laughing. We went painting and we were drying our pictures with hair dryers and we just kept randomly poking them up so we would blow each other in the face. We also had a mini water fight in the sink area. We also got paint all over ourselves lol. This was also in public because it was a painting class. She took my social anxiety away for those moments and I love her and appreciate her so much and I don't know if she knows that. We openly say I love you because it makes us both remember someone loves us. We have a lot of mental health struggles lol.
Seeing two people of differing opinions find equal ground. Never ceases to restore my faith in humanity.
Honestly just waking up every morning to another day with the people I love. Nothing brings me more joy than just being able to kiss my husband good morning and pack my kids lunches.
Chilling with my daughter
Seeing my boyfriend
A clean home
Baby animals
Cats
A good day
Clean underwear fresh out of the dryer
A good back massage
Accomplishing goals
Optimism
I live on acreage with my dogs ....that makes me happy. The freedom to wander around, feel the sun, watch the dogs run, play and swim, grow my plants and just be away from people. Heaven on a stick.
When people seperate the art from the artist
I troll, and "people" seem to think that I have no life because of that
When the artist does something bad, it doesnt discredit the art itself. For example, Kevin Spacey was in COD Advanced Warfare. Is that campaign bad because of what he did? NO! The art is different from the artist, and almost no one gets this. I notice it a lot on BP
I haven't seen it here, but me and my friends definitely do that. We're all theatre nerds so naturally we love Hamilton and most musicals. Anthony Ramos (the guy who played John Laurens and Phillip Hamilton) cheated on his wife. Now we don't like him as a person but we love the work he does/did. He's a great artist and he's great at what he does
