Your Happy Place

coffee drinker — Tue, 30 Jan 2018 04:01:59 GMT

Maybe a vacation spot, a room in your home, any place. Mine is the kitchen. I love to cook whether for family or friends. I'm happiest there. Not too crazy about cleaning up, but that's the price we all pay.

So what's your happy place?

The ocean, or even a river. Soul soothing.

I also love my kitchen which I remodeled about 7 years ago. It's exactly as I want it! I used to hate it, although I do like cooking.

It was just an ugly depressing room and I wanted to get out of it as quickly as I could. Once I leave this house, I may never have a kitchen I like as much as this one.

the ocean......during the in season and even more during the off season. during the off season i love the solitude, the sound of the waves, the quiet streets, and even the food and service is better when you go out!

My happy place is my family room, watching TV & my laptop on my lap. Also being by myself in the room.

Well, you know how when you go in for surgery and the anesthetist comes in and says: "We are just going to give you a little something to relax." ?

That there is my happy place.

My happy place is being home with nothing to do and no where to go.

My happy place is when/where I'm in a peaceful, grateful zone and forget to worry, regret or be upset about something.

Capitola.

Cambria.

Any of several restaurants where I get excellent food, service and ambiance.

An ice rink, and it goes unsaid, sitting where I am at this very moment, our home's 4 season patio room.

Early retirement afforded the opportunity relocating closer to people who mean everything to me. My happiness isn't contingent on any one place or location. Peace of mind inside-out first and foremost. Lifestyle matters. Keeps me balanced and healthy. Wholefoods my favorite store! No exaggeration spiritual experience. True! Yesterday as everyday enjoy bountiful harvest of vegetables. While eating thought! Life is beautiful. Exercise various activities. Love being able to enjoy many venues in my area. Most of all connection mind body soul-relationship with my high power. Blessings of health and happiness to you.⚘

My happy place is in the den with DH and two kitty cats. Early retirement has afforded me the luxury to be a kid again.

Sitting at the sewing machine or the quilting frame.

The ceiling could come crashing down around my feet, I would look up - say oh dear and go right back to what I was working on!

My happy place is not so much a place, although I do have some places that make me happy, but it's more like a certain mood I can achieve at times --- and it doesn't matter where I am. I will be honest and say --- it doesn't happen really often any more, but occasionally, this peacful, serene feeling will come over me for a couple minutes -- I wish I could bottle it --- and retrieve it whenever I want!

I might be driving somewhere and look up at the sky and it is just the most gorgeous shade of blue with all of these fluffy white clouds and it will light up my day!

Or I could be sitting on my back patio and suddenly I will look up and see a darling bunny hopping around, eating some grass and just enjoying being alive!

If I could choose one place that puts me in a true happy place it would be near the ocean. Tranquility and a sense of peace and calmness comes over me.
