Too often I focus on the negative when in reality I know there are positive things in my life. I think this is a great idea and I’m excited to see my list.

How to list 100 things that make me happy
It made me
feel blessed
 "It's always worth taking a pause to think of happy thoughts and be reminded that life is a fun gift to enjoy."
How I did it: Looking through all the goals posted in 43things.com, I found this the easiest to accomplish. And I thought it would be worth doing it.(and it really is!) Lessons & tips: Take sometime to contemplate on what your life has been. Most probably, failures, disappointments and heartaches would cross your mind first. But try to do away with it. Think of all the happy thoughts...happy memories. And you'll see, a lot of them are usually the small things that go unnoticed in our lives. Resources: pc / paper and pen, inspiring music, enough time, just You

Great idea!
6 days ago
I’m going to do this over the span of 100 days, though. It’ll make it a little less daunting, and a little more fun—for me at least. I like the idea of coming on here every day or so and writing a new entry.
Without further ado, number one thing that makes me happy is My dog Spike, or rather the memory of him now as he died this April. He is still and will probably always be the greatest thing that ever happened to me.
