My Happy Award!

.
Well, here's something to boost my spirits! My Happy Award from Arnetta Green from the blog "This May Sound Crazy, But I'm saying It Anyway!"

Tada!! Behold, my Happy Award!!!




So, I must list 10 things that make me happy and then pass it on to 10 other bloggers that make me happy. Okay here goes..

(1) Na Nachim! Those guys who go around dancing and acting silly to make others laugh



(2) Likutey Maharan and all the books about Rebbe Nachman's teachings including his stories.

Once upon a time all these books were banned by many communities. Yep, forbidden stuff! Yum. LoL! Now they are available. Likutey Moharan (Rebbe Nachman's teachings), Likutey Halachot -Rebbe Nosson blending Rebbe Nachman's teaching with a different book (shulchan aruch), Likutey Tefillot (awesomely arranged prayers for various needs), Stories (currently reading the "7 Beggars"), Outpouring of the Soul, Advice, etc, etc. I can see why they were forbidden: It warns against certain rabbis who are only out for wealth or honor -no one in particular but it gives the characteristics of what to avoid. Hah!

(3) Laughter. Particularly Haitian men laughter or those rumbly African men laughter. Can't describe it. Just reminds me of the good parts of home.

(4) Talking to my sister on the phone.

(5) Eating! I'm really not a big eater, but I do enjoy my granola, fruit and yogurt dish every once in a while. Guacamole.



(6) Nature. Breathtaking nature gives me breathtaking thoughts...



OY! Ten??!! lol.

(7) Great conversations. I have to post about this one day.

(8) Blogging. Otherwise I wouldn't take the time to do it.

(9) My children! How could I forget that one!

and the last one...

(10) Silence. That beautiful sound when all is well (like the deaf beggar in the story of the 7 Beggars)
