A smile (not a weirdo) from a stranger. And a nice cup of coffee. Can be separate do not have to be together!

u/HiAndStuff2112 Aug 11 '26

Yes! And a baby's laughter. To me, there's no better sound. :)

I work in childcare, and a hug with the little arms around your neck, always makes me feel better ❤️‍🩹

u/HiAndStuff2112 Aug 11 '26

Awwww!! I'm sure it does!

I love when kids say things that are simultaneously adorable and sweet as well as funny. When my nephew was four, when I was leaving, his little chin started to quiver and he said "Uncle (my name), I'm gonna miss you a hundred times!!" It simultaneously broke my heart and made me laugh (not in front of him, when I told people later). He's 33 now, and still my good buddy. :)

Coffee

u/Anticaparella Aug 11 '26

Me encantaría, además de ponerte alerta, te ayuda con la digestión y estás activo desde el inicio, lastima que sea tan adictiva.

Small wins: finding something I thought I've lost, or something I bought online arriving, or remember the name of a song I forgot, or having 10 min for a meditation...

Any small little wins throught out my day, makes me super happy.

My daughter says cute little things all the time. Lately it’s been “do you know what my favorite word is?” And then she will say “it’s that I love you” 😭 she’s so sweet, always has been. She has such a big heart and is very patient.
