1. Lying in bed on a stormy morning and not having to get up.
2. When someone you’re interested in scratches you softly.
3. When something stuck between your teeth finally gets out.
4. The moment you see the waiter/waitress approaching on the horizon with your food.
5. Opening up your windows after a long, cold winter. When the breeze brings the smell of flowers and fresh mowed grass into your bedroom.
6. That little window of time where you’re lying in bed awake just on the precipice where you could fall back asleep for another hour or two if you wanted, and then you realize you can.

8. After a weekend away, going number 2 in your own bathroom.
9. When you’re able to genuinely make another person(s) laugh.
