i read el's post about whose rule is it that one must feel 'blue"?
so i thought it was a fair question

and it intrigued me

so i'll balance it out
because its only fair
and i'm super curious

what do you do when you feel happy?

i guess i'll go first

when i am happy

i smile more
my intelligence goes up a couple of notches
as does my creativity

people reflect my happiness
i laugh

i get the feeling that anything is possible
which is of course

in fact here is a good list of things we should all learn from our dog lol


Never pass up the opportunity to go for a joy ride.

Allow the experience of fresh air and the wind in your face to be pure ecstasy.

When loved ones come home, always run to greet them.

Take naps and stretch before rising.

Run, romp, and play daily.

Be loyal.

Never pretend to be something you're not.

Eat with gusto and enthusiasm.

If what you want lies buried, dig until you find it.

When someone is having a bad day, be silent, sit close by and nuzzle them gently.

Thrive on affection and let people touch you - enjoy back rubs and pats on your neck.

When you leave your yard, make it an adventure.

Avoid biting when a simple growl will do.

No matter how often you're scolded, don't buy into the guilt thing and pout - run right back and make friends.

Bond with your pack.

On cold nights, curl up in front of a crackling fire.

When you're excited, speak up.

When you're happy, dance around and wag your entire body.

Delight in the simple joy of a long walk.
