Ingredients of Happiness

The strum of an accoustic guitar
The taste of a sweet lemon
The smell of gingerbread coming out of the oven
The splash of water
The smell of chlorine
The warmth of a motherly hug
The summer rain smell
Barefoot weather
The smell of old books
A grin from a friend
A book you really love
A sad movie
The open ocean
The beach house
A soft head in your lap
Baseball game at ten o'clock
A broadway show
The first chords of your favorite song
New clothes
A secret hideout
An ice cream sandwich
Laughter.
These are the things that make happiness.
