    Things we all should do every day. We should do this every day of our lives. Number one is laugh. You should laugh every day. Number two is think. You should spend some time in thought. And number three is, you should have your emotions moved to tears, could be happiness or joy. But think about it. If you laugh, you think, and you cry, that's a full day. That's a heck of a day. You do that seven days a week, you're going to have something special.
    Jim Valvano quotes

    At times we feel so happy. The time when we surprise our loved one with a new dish and if it comes out well and we are appreciated for that. The joy we have inmaking it for our loved ones becomes double when it is appreciated. Sometimes when the dish does not turn out as we expected we should not get disappointed but try the means to do some changes and make it edible

    When we buy a gift for someone and when the gift is given to them if they are happy with the gift we feel so happy. We should always look at the glass hall full instead of half empty. Should not be disappointed if we dont get a job, but might be we get a better one than that. We should believe that everything happens for the best

    When we are in bad situation we should think of the people who are suffering more than us.

    It's the little things in life that give us the greatest moments of happiness, When someone conceives after a long time the happiness they derive cant be mentioned in words and when the child is born they are in the top of the world and everytime they see the little one's face brings asmile on their face

    People who lose weight after much struggling feel very happy and also the people who gain weight. It is not so easy for people who are thin to become fat and vice versa.

    The little successes that get you jumping for joy are:

    1. Discovering money you didn't know you had or finding 20 pounds in an old coat

    2. Winning a competition you forgot you entered

    3. Getting a refund or rebate you didn't know was due

    4. Saving money on household bills

    5. Finding a 10-pound winning lottery ticket

    6. Going to the till at the shops and realising your item has been marked down

    7. Losing 1/2lb

    8. Finding money in a supermarket self-service checkout

    9. Not having a hangover after a big night out

    10. Getting a seat on the train into work
