Have a happy day hivers! This week's question challenge is a very broad question. It seems easy but when you find the real reason of being happy is quite difficult. At certain times we are happy because we need to but the most important dimension is to be happy because it's natural. It is what our heart dictates and it gives us peace of mind and a flattered feeling.
Key 1. Having Quality Time as a Family
Nowadays it is very rare to see a family that eats together, go travel together and sleep together. Back at 4 years ago when I got married, we live together in our own house, but 2 years ago we are separated because of my husband's job. He left me and my daughter for the first time for 5 months 3 years ago because he went to Manila for his first application but failed so came home again. Then 2 years ago he left us again but now with two kids for his 2nd application and good thing he passed and we didn't see him for almost 11 months during his 5 months application and 6 months training. Then left us again last year because he was assigned so far away but just last February we are reunited and live together because we finally rented a house near to where he is assigned.
Today he can go home everyday and we can eat together once a day and one thing which is the most important one is that the kids can finally see him everyday. The fun when we are together is worth the expense here. We both do the chores especially weekends and my heart and mind is at peace of thinking. The happiness felt of being together everyday is very priceless.
Key 2. Having Clients Everyday Means Everyday Income
Money is very essential everyday. I worked in so many things. I always grab opportunities whenever I am comfortable earning money to help my husband. I am an affiliate to a an agency relating to English certificates that help ESL teachers get a job or aspiring teachers to go abroad.
I am an ESL teacher too and worked in a very flexible company and I am also here in hive everyday creating blogs and engaging to other's posts.
I also do livestreaming and I do online selling foods. Having a passive income everyday makes me feel relax and happy and I can buy my cravings, skin care products and toys for my kids.
Key 3. Receiving Appreciations from Husband and Random People
My husband always told me I am beautiful whenever I am in good mood or angry and it gives me butterflies in the stomach and a smile. When people appreciate me, I feel so happy and it feels like there is a butterfly in my stomach. I have 2 kids and I am 23 years old turning 24 this year but my neighbors, relatives and random people always told me I look like 18 years old, looks like I am a teenager or they always told me I am beautiful. These words of appreciation makes me feel comfortable with myself and erased insecurities.
When someone upvotes my posts and gave rewards I am so happy. One day I got so many notifications because I received so many votes I am so happy and very eager to create more blogs.
These 3 things are honestly what makes me happy. Starting the day we are complete I had able to create fun events in my life. Having enough money for every day's needs makes me feel light and no headaches anymore. Being appreciated by my husband and random people feels being accepted and seen.
I am so happy that @justinparke made the 150th week challenge themed through the question "what makes you happy?" because I was able to contemplate myself what makes me happy recently. And along the making of this blog I realized that making yourself happy is a matter of choice. I do not have everything, I am not rich but I talked to myself for an hour like deep talks of what makes me happy and came up with these 3 key components.
That's all for today Hivers, So you? What makes you happy? can you leave a comment below? I would love to read it.
Thank you so much! Lovelots.
