what makes you happiest?
My six week old baby Wilfryd! No one can explain how much work babies are but similarly no one can explain how much happiness they can bring you! He has recently started smiling which is the most incredible thing, he is starting to experience happiness himself!
do you have a ‘happy place’?
I am a very much a home body and family orientated. I am happiest at home surrounded by my cats, my boyfriend and my baby! Maybe with some good tunes, good music and a sketch book too!
do you have a favourite happy song?
SUCH a hard question! At the moment I would say it was 'Leonard Cohen's - Famous Blue Raincoat' which may seem like an odd choice! I dont know that many people would describe Leonard Cohen as happy music but my son was born to that song so hearing it makes me feel so happy, and makes me cry at the same time!
what gets you past a bad day?
Its hard to remember the good things when you are consumed with a bad day. I tend to think 'tomorrow is a new day' try to think of all the good things that have happened that day or how lucky I am so be healthy and loved. Putting on good tunes helps too! Even if its sad songs, I find they often help to let me wallow and then snap out of it!

what makes you
happiest?
I'm not sure what exactly it is that makes me
happiest, it's some sort of mixture of being happy with myself, and finding
beauty in the world. But of course the equation to my happiness is normally:
Iced coffee, new art supplies and alone time.
do you have a ‘happy place’?
My happy place is any where out in nature. I
feel very peaceful in forests, fields and cemeteries. When I was younger I would
walk to the local cemetery even. My other happy place would be my little art
studio. I have pictures of beautiful and happy things all over the walls. It is
of course where I create, and that in itself is happy!
do you have a favourite happy song?
My favorite happy song is "Getting Better" by
the Beatles. I remember when I was just getting over my depression, I turned on
this song and literally danced to it. My little puppy Mowgli danced along with
me, and I sang it with him. "It's getting better since you've been mine" was my
favorite part, since he was a huge factor in getting over my depression. The
song now is very bitter sweet since he passed away, but things always do get
better
what gets you past a bad day?
If I'm ever having a bad day, or feeling
depressed, I know all I need is to go exploring nature. If that doesn't work,
helping someone else always will. Sending someone a sweet message, a small
package, or simply telling someone they are beautiful gets me out of a bad mood
very very fast.
I'd love to do this! I would send you an email but my computer is being weird and won't bring up your email address. Could you send me the info to do it? prettynods@yahoo.com - thank you!
