What Makes You "Happy"?

You know....everyone is trying to find happiness (or at least I hope you are). That brings up the question....what makes you happy? Money, fame, fortune, a good running truck, a nice looking truck, a loving spouse/girlfriend/"friend w/ privleges"...those could all make some people happy. But what about you? What makes you happy?

I know for me....good relationships with people outweigh just about everything else.

Umm... lots of things

Buying a new tool... always makes me happy.
Working on my truck.... even though I'm usually swearing the whole time I still enjoy it.
Beer.... nothing better after a long work week.

and my son, he's about to turn two in a couple days, and while he's a pain in the **** 99% of the time, it's so cool to see him learn new things everyday.

This weekend he "helped" me paint the garden shed in the backyard, he'd bring me the brush I'd dip it in the paint and give it back to him and he'd say "tank yoo" and go rub paint all over the shed.

The sound of my Bronco's 351W cranking up... cruising around Arizona back roads on my Yamaha R1... Hitting cruise altitude in a Cessna... and definitely spending time with the family.

What makes me happy is just being alive everyday. Many people take life for granted one to many times. But its all on how you live.

I would have to say My girlfriend, Family and friends. The irreplaceable things mean more than money anyday but money will always be in the equation. I went to a dirt track for the first time ever last weekend down in SE Minnesota. It was Deer Creek Speedway and that was a really good time. I guess I wouldnt be so happy in the life I have if I had not made the choices I did to put me where I am right now. Going into my 4th year of tech college which starts in about 4 days and going to graduate in the spring. Life is awsome, loving girlfriend (someday I will be marrying) and glad I have many skills of different trades.

Watching baseball or football keeps me in a good mood. Just sittin' outside relaxin' does just fine also. I have more than enough new lil cousins runnin' around at family functions which bring a smile to my face. My woman wants kids eventually which doesnt bother me one bit.

Hmmm and theres building rigs either trucks, cars or race cars. Using the imagination is great stuff.
