Nothing Happier than Hope, Gummy Bears, & Popsicles

What makes you happy?  I have a goal to find, recognize, and remember the little things that make life happy.  Read more about the nothing happier series.

Here is this week’s list of things that make me happy:

Hope

Nothing makes me happier than hope.

I think just about anyone can appreciate the statement that “Life is hard.”  I remember hearing it as a child and truly learning what it means as an adult.  One thing I have had to learn to remember is that no matter how hard life is, you have to remain hopeful.

I have made a conscious effort to stay hopeful even when life doesn’t feel like it could get any harder or that it is time to give up.  I saw this quote on Pinterest recently and it really resonated with me:

“Even the darkest night will end and the sun will rise.”

That is a reminder to me to always keep hope.  I also heard this thought provoking quote about hope recently:

It will all be okay in the end.  If it’s not okay it’s not the end.”

I made a printable for the quote that you can download here.

Staying happy will help you stay hopeful.  Hope makes me happy.

Gummy Bears

Nothing makes me happier than gummy bears.

Maybe it’s the kid in me.  Maybe it’s the colors.  I love gummy bears.

Check out my Happy Unbirthday printables and my Valentine’s Day printables for more gummy bears.

Popsicles

Nothing makes me happier than popsicles.

Popsicles are the perfect summer treat.  The kids can eat them outside and keep the house from getting sticky.  My favorite popsicles are Pace Bars or Dreyer’s Fruit Bars.

It’s summer!  Woot, woot!  Bring on the stickiness.  And wrappers all over the yard.

What is making you happy this week?
