What makes me happy - ok other than sharing Christ and spending time with God etc ...

First thing I can think of is when my family and friends are happy.

When it’s cold and rainy or even sunny and warm and I can snuggle up on the sofa and look out at the greenery i am
Blessed to have as a view from my lounge window.

When I receive mail from someone who randomly just though of me and decided to send a card or Write to me With all their news and thoughts, instead of
Dropping a brief but polite “hi” text.

Nature and love and friends and family and ... chocolate lol

Hi Tararose I actually smiled when I read your comments..😊..I van totally relate to the niceness of some of these things..who doesn't like snuggling up on the sofa and look out
at nature..💕..
Friends/family can bring the biggest smile 😊..its amazing how someone can make ur day by sending a random text/email just to say HI..and I just noticed you love chocolates too..🍫🍫🍫...so if I had to buy you a birthday present i would know exactly what to do.
But you come chocolate and get a friend that you hold dear yet haven't seen for sure to deliver it in person to ur home..🏠...👌👌😊

Yes this northern hemisphere weather is like playing spin the bottle. But Praise G-d for all seasons :)

I will have to isolate for 14 days and they are currently in lockdown, that is okay, more study time :) I love Israel so much! The world is so different there!

Haha yes...we are certainly a strange creature. These habits come out of a form of desire and entitlement. It is something that will take most of our lives to crush. Sometimes we get a glimpse of it when we humble ourselves.

If all the pieces go right, I will be making "aliyah" or moving to Israel permanently. Thank G-d!!! I miss it soooooo much! And yes family over there takes 1st place by far. I love it!

Yes subconciously that feeling of entitlement is alway there that sense of..."I want my personal preferences meet regardless!"🤣..One of the hardest things in life is to face the truth of who we really are.
Hold on....so if you love Israel so much it should be one if the things that will make you happy then..👌👌

Hi true_believer yes going to the theatre can be such a magical experience too..👏🏻👏💕
Shame that due to covid-19 it's not happening for a while...but also all those involved in that industry are mostly freelancers and are really struggling...😔

AAAAAAHHHHH..what a downer..yes of course..what a pitty..yet again God knows coz there was a ferry that was stranded due to virus and the passengers couldn't leave the ship for many days..(this happened at the beginning of the pandemic)
That would of been horrendous if this happened to you and your family..plus with the added risk of getting the virus on board the ship too.
Lets hope next spring-summer you can all enjoy a massive break together...and it would be a well needed break to from all the stresses caused by the virus
