Simple things that bring me JOY..,

I love to smile :)

A lot of people don’t smile these days, and often you have to be the one that initiates it.  But not only does smiling make you feel good, smiling at someone will make their day too.  Smile more and watch how your day can instantly turn around.  While you’re at it, give compliments too.  Be sincere – find something about the person that you appreciate and let them know.

Most people seem to walk with their heads down, looking at their phones, typing messages or scrolling.  Look up and appreciate your surroundings.  And say hello to other people. 

Perform a selfless act for someone else without expecting anything in return.  Through your generosity, you can positively affect another person’s life and bring joy to yourself from having done so.  It can be giving a care package to the homeless, handing out roses to random strangers, or buying someone in line a cup of coffee. 

Doing a random act of kindness not only helps you live in the moment but improves that moment for you and someone else…
