multicoloured mirrors.

on friday, i ran into a book at knott's berry farm.
why was i at knott's, you ask?
well, i decided to spend some quality time with the girls in my beautiful family, and tag along on their adventure.
i really do miss living with the lovely mccollum ladies.
 so anyway, on our way out, we stopped by the snoopy gift store, and i happened to come across [this book].
if you click to look inside, you'll understand what it's about.
it's simply a list of all the things that charles schulz believed make up happiness.
it was so inspiring that i decided to make up my own list.
happiness is yet another one of those words which, i believe, requires the word subjective in its definition.
so here's my definition:

happiness is...

just painted red nails.
  a purring cat in your lap.
the smell of a library book.
that yearbook message with the power to make you cry.
 discovering a new favorite song.
crossing something off your to do list.
rainbow sprinkles.
a list of your future baby's names.
christmas time.
your own bed.
role models//feeling inspired.
speaking in another language.
making a child smile.
being the receiver of the words 'you really made me feel better'.
teaching someone something new.
getting goosebumps when it's not even cold.
laughing just because someone else's laugh is contagious.
knowing you are loved.


p.s. i would like to send a shout out to mr. samuel hancock blasucci who i miss dearly.
i enjoy getting your <3 every day.

Listen to the New Broadway cast recording of "You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown!" There is an entire song called "Happiness" and you will love :-)
