23
So often peoples birthday’s come around and they reflect on things they may have learned in their (insert age) years on this planet. I thought about doing that, but then I decided to switch things up. Instead, today I am just going to share 23 things that make me insanely happy, in no particular order, in honor of my own 23rd birthday.
- Time spent with my family on the beach. 
- Playing in the waves. Be it the ocean or lake, on a surfboard or not, the water can always make me happy. 
- Traveling to new places and the amazing, beautiful, inspiring people I meet along the way. 
- Nights in with my best friends, a glass or two of wine and lots of laughs. 
- Writing. 
- Freshly done nails or hair. For some reason having my nails done or getting my hair done just really makes me feel like I have my life together. 
- Sea Turtles. Those little dudes (okay they aren't always so little) are just my favorite creatures. I think I would even call them my spirit animal. 
- The warm feeling of the sun when it shines on my cheeks and shoulders. 
- My weekly trip to the chiropractor. 
- The way that getting some work done while at a coffee shop makes me feel just a little more productive. 
- The smell of surf wax. 
- A perfectly ripe mango. 
- Palm trees. 
- Watching the people I care about do really well and succeed in the things they are passionate about. 
- Lululemon leggings. 
- My leather jacket that can make any outfit I have look a little bit better. 
- Coconut ice cream. 
- Coconut anything actually- coconut oil lip gloss, a coconut milk late, coconut scented lotions. 
- Taking photos on film. There is something so beautiful about the surprise of getting back your photos and also having a tangible memory to hold. 
- Jamming out to the Hamilton or RENT original broadway cast recordings. 
- This little creative space I have created for myself. This blog is my little labor of love. 
- Getting a good, sweaty work out in and feeling strong! 
- A good book. Preferably read while lounging in the sun near some body of water.
