...When What You Think, What You Say, and What You Do is in Harmony.

- Mahatma Gandhi

Found this Colander in a kitchen cabinet and thought I would try to fill it with Happiness. Being as creative as a bag of rocks, this was the best I could do… it did bring a smile : )

Make it a Great Day !!

When You Have It Enjoy It to The Fullest.

Per 'chi tene o mare' la felicità è un'idea semplice!! :)

felicità

a volte può bastare un cartello stradale per la felicità

2016 - tra i giorni più belli

scendere dall'auto

lasciarmi avvolgere dall'aria fresca di maggio

e dalla sensazione di essere giunta finalmente sulla porta di casa.

Il cielo in continuo movimento.

Best wishes for Valentine's Day !

Like seriously, I have no other ideas as to what to name this photo. Standing in the field full of sunflowers totally made me happy and when I look at them that's how I feel. I can't help but smile when I look at them :)

Happiness is ... picking a card out of the World Box of Happiness. Good luck!

Para mi amigo David!!

It's been a joy to see more Monarch Butterflies this year. I was especially happy when two of them came to visit the Zinnias. I wondered if they were a pair, but could not see a black spot on each of the hind wings of either of them. This one is a female, for sure.

knowing spring will come!

. . . a new jingly ball toy!

Not sure Holly ever had toys that were bought just for her. She is our new little girl- a rescue from a truck stop in Mississippi. She is such a little sweetheart. She delivered 6 kittens several weeks after we brought her home. She is doing well, and LOVES the babies, and she really loves to be petted! Happiness is having Holly HERE with us!

Happy Caturday, Everybody!

..... when 'The Royal Arrival' visits this Wild Garden

The ‘Royal Arrival’ is a stray tomcat and has been visiting this Wild Garden in West Wales on a very regular basis – sometimes he even sleeps in one of the wood sheds, here. Birds, squirrels, rabbits and the cat respect each other well - as well as the wild-life of this cute tomcat is respected by his tin-opener. He is being cared for as best as possible and as much as he allows being cared for.

Hello awesome Flickr People !!

Today is my triple challenge day. We have an orange day at Color my World Daily and the theme at Crazy Tuesday is : « happiness is…. ». Which is awesome because who is the best to explain what happiness is ? Of course Mr. Teddy Bear and his friends ! And since it is also Happy Teddy Bear Tuesday that is just a perfect timing in the tricky world of Flickr themes…

I asked Mr. Teddy Bear to finish this sentence : happiness is… And he had a perfect answer ! Happiness is a cup of coffee shared with friends or loved ones…

Which is a perfect answer and definition of what happiness is… at least for me and Mr. Teddy Bear…. I truly miss having friends over and changing the world with them, during a BBQ or just a cup of coffee. Please note that coffee is not mandatory for happiness, just replace it with your favorite drink (you all know by now that there is probably a gin & tonic in my cup of coffee lol ) and your favorite people ! And there you go ! Boom : happiness is just about to happen! As you can see in my picture: Mr. Teddy Bear, Borys and Wiktor are all very happy to enjoy some time together over coffee…Happiness doesn’t required much :-).

Have a beautiful day and see you later my friends !!

Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and healthy!! And see you soon on Flickr!!

...being surprised by an unexpected photo opportunity, such as this American mink that emerged from the water of a pond right in front of me. I see these critters very rarely. This is one of only a couple of shots that I was able to get before the mink slipped back into the water again and disappeared.

Happiness

Back, want to say hallo and send you my hugs:)

Happy Springtime:)

Happiness is always possible - the only thing that really holds you back is your mind. You have probably already noticed that the happiest times in your life are when you are not thinking. It's a wonderful thing to stand outside your ego, to surrender to the flow, and to participate fully in a hobby, in nature, in meditation, in prayer, in art, in dance, in sport, and in the moment.
