We had a wonderful dinner today with lots of ice-cream. Then we thought about how nice and easy life can be. What else do you need in life? Wonderful love, nice food and great ice-cream! How simply life can be happy! And it is even nicer, when you have a second round of ice-cream!
Iris said: ‘It is very easy to make you happy because you are happy in small things.’ I am a happy person by nature. But also I am a normal human person and so many things can affect me. However I try to always live in my happiness. And I am also happy when I am successful in being happy.

Ice cream is really wonderful, especially when you have it only once every few months. My mother grew up near a famous Ice Cream factory (Ben and Jerry’s) and we used to go every year or so. Ah, the simple pleasures.
It’s beautiful to enjoy something like ice cream. So simple, so delightful. If we can’t enjoy the little things, then we will never be happy. It’s good to just slow down, look around, and find peace and joy in simplicity.
Love this reflection on being happy about the small things! A great way to maintain a wonderful joyous life.
