Rain.
Sunshine.
A distinct lack of ice in winter.
Trains running on time.
Happy children.
Consistent acts of kindness.
Dawn chorus.
Dusk chorus.
The songs of Sir Elton John.
Not missing the bus.
Life in general, 80% of the time.
Pekingese, Pugs, Griffons, Affenpinschers...
Work.
Eyeliner.
Big hair.
Most sermons.
Cats.
Libraries.
People.

Trains that don't go and I'll arrive at the office at 12 o'clock because I have to drive around the country and so have some extra time to read the funny comments on cf.

Lol one collegue makes me smile. She once told me her story and it was horrible but she said: just keep smiling stupidly. Lol she's just always smiling. Once I arrived at 7 o'clock in the morning, still sleepy and she was whistling lalalalala. Funny.
All my collegues make me smile. They joke the whole day through.

someone who smiles at me. laughs do the same thing. I looked over at a friend who was trying to hide his laugh. then I started laughing and then he saw me and couldn't hold back. we both had to get up and leave the seminar bursting into laughter out in the hall. they could still hear us.

My niece.
New calves, all knobby and clean, hobbling around behind their mothers.
Hillsides covered in wildflowers and all the wildlife it brings.
Birthday cake. I am a firm believer that it tastes better than other cakes.
Preparing a meal for others and them loving it.
Snow that falls but the ground is too warm so it doesn't accumulate.

I think a laugh is just a smile that exploded.
