What makes you happy?

If I want to be truly happy, it has to involve my family.

I sat here, while writing this, thinking about what makes me happy. Is it when I get paid? No.

Is it taking time for myself? No. Good food? No.

For me, when I am truly happy, it is when I am surrounded by my family. Let me put a finer point on it, my immediate family. I love to get everyone together, pick a movie we all want to see, go to our bonus room, under blankets and watch the movie together.

As fast as life is right now, we rarely get the opportunity, but when we do, I feel as though all is right in the world.

What about you? It could be your pets, going for a run, good food, a great glass of wine. Is the key to happiness on this list?
