Small things in life

Happiness is … finally moving into a new apartment with a normal shower and bed

Happiness is not … finding an ant trail straight across your new bed

Happiness is … waking up at 5 o’clock just in time to go to the ocean and see the sunrise over Saudi Arabia

Happiness is not … waking up at 1 o’clock to the sound of a mosquito

Happiness is … relaxing in a park with a cold beer in your hand

Happiness is not … realizing you forgot the beer

Happiness is … sitting under the stars in Egypt with good friends watching the lunar eclipse

Happiness is not … sitting under the sun without any shadow in sight

Happiness is … practicing your new language at the local coffee place and getting understood

Happiness is not … practicing your new language and getting the answer back in English

Happiness is … meeting random incredible people while hitch hiking

Happiness is not … getting dumped in the middle of nowhere by the police just because you were hitch hiking on the highway

Happiness is … having everything you own in your backpack and being able to change place at any moment

Happiness is not … washing all your clothes at the same time and realizing that all your white clothes are now pink

Happiness is … meeting a new friend and to create a long lasting relationship

Happiness is not … leaving a friend and knowing that it will take years before you meet again
