Hey Pandas, What’s Something That Never Fails To Make You Smile? (Ended)

ADVERTISEMENT

I think everyone needs a little extra happiness in their lives right now, so please share something that always makes you happy. No politics, nothing sexist, nothing racist, nothing homophobic, nothing transphobic, nothing xenophobic, and in general, nothing discriminatory. That includes comments, you will be downvoted into oblivion. Also, just advice about how to deal with life and avoid depression would be great!

For me, it’s painting and listening to music. I like to zone out and create! This is a paint-by-the-numbers, and it was pretty easy!

Stand up comedy mainly but i love all comedy. As they say laughter is the best medicine. I teach to students from all walks of life and i always like to have a laugh with them. It helps them to feel more comfortable in the classroom and to forget their worries. A sense of humour goes a long way!

A good, joyful, genuine belly laugh! A laugh that goes on for a long time, and goes into the next day, and then it becomes a memory - but a memory that you can't help but still chuckle at years down the road! A memory built on laughter always makes me smile, and laugh some more, and then I simply forget everything that is horrible and sad in the world and just keep on going! A laugh that brings tears to your eyes, and you just let them go until all is mixed and I never know what to feel after! A good joke, a funny situation, an endearing moment, and life itself just make me smile like nothing else - except for a good laugh!

Jesus Christ makes me smile ☺. He is the reason that life is worth living for me. Spending time in presence of God by reading the bible and just worshiping brings me so much joy and peace even when I am going through tough times. He freed me from a whole lot of addictions and mental illness,what is so awesome about him is that he loves us all just the way we are. No sin can take away his love from us and you don't have to fix yourself before going to him. He says come as you are He will do the rest. He gave me a purpose, I was so lost in this world man. Jesus Christ loves you just as he finds you!

Sand Glorious Sand. I collect sand - people bring me sand as gifts from their travels. Often, it is only the sand that collects in the bottom of their beach bags, which is perfect! None from Hawai'i because we shall not anger the gods! (or destroy the coast line...) I'm landlocked in the middle of the US, but was born on the coast and miss big water and beaches, so when I need a little vacation, I grab one of the jars, usually San Diego or Bahamas, stick my fingers in there and imagine the salt air, the pounding waves, and relax... https://www.instagram.com/p/BDTSInlRWjR/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

Ooh a toughie. It’s hard to find that one thing that always makes you happy, especially when you suffer mental illness. I currently find it very hard to find much joy but I am trying. Don’t get me wrong I have happy moments but being actually happy happy (if that makes sense) is hard to find. Spending a weekend with just hubby was amazing and I was very happy, taking the kids out for the day and the joy on their faces made me happy, going camping makes me happy (although haven’t gone camping this year yet), spending time with my brothers and my mum playing board games or doing an adventure room etc and animals especially my dog.

Laughing Babies. At a particularly low point in my life, shortly after my divorce and right about the time the new guy in my life cheated on me with his ex-wife, I came across this video of a baby laughing while his dad tore sheets of paper. I laughed until I cried, and watched it over and over until I felt some of the weight of current events slip from my shoulders. I still see out laughing babies whenever I need a grin. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FPp-FfmAip4

Very little lately, but my animals help me cope. My dog, when he wants me to throw the ball, will hand it to me very politely. But he will sometimes act like he is going to, but instead drop it at my feet for me to kick. Or drop it just out of my reach, and commence playing soccer. Such a tease! Other times he will lie down in his pool, then jump up suddenly and tear around the yard like mad. Finally coming to a stop next to me and shaking off the excess water. That gets a full laugh, he is such a bad boy!

My dog Shilo. He is a beautiful Border Collie with the goofiest sense of humour I have ever seen in a dog. He has this trick which he taught himself of putting his throw rings around his head or nose and looking at us and smiling. He especially does this when he wants attention or sees me with my phone and poses in front of me and waits for me to take his picture. He even adjusts himself and and sits upright with the rings around his head or nose when I say "pose for me." But he makes me smile by just coming up to me tail wagging with a smile on his face. I just love him so much.

Just about any of the numerous quotes from movies like The Princess Bride, Spaceballs, Caddyshack, Airplane, Highlander, Predator and so many that have awesome one liners. Take the movie Se7en.

Sean Paul.
Had a delightfully free, fun relationship when I was in uni, with a very entertaining guy who had a really good heart. It wasn't love, more like friends with benefits but we did care for each other a lot, and created tons of amazing memories. Since then I've found my real pair, someone who absolutely was made for me, and I would not give him up for the world, nor do I miss what once was, but I still think about these memories very fondly.
Sean Paul was very popular at the time and often played in the background when we were together. I remember my "friend" telling me every time he heard the line "Hey sexy lady" he couldn't help but think of me. And in turn every time I hear Sean Paul I think of him, youth, our shared past, and I smile with all my heart.

Watching South Korean boyband BTS on YouTube always makes my heart smile too. Their vocals and choreography are breathtaking and always so full of emotion, energy and pure talent.
