Little things which always make your day (lemm.ee)

For me it's any of these things:

People commenting on my art. I deeply cherish the fact that someone has taken time out of their day to say nice things about my work!

People calling me pretty. I get this quite a lot, but it always hits just as it does the first time! 😊

Finding a new song that I end up becoming incredibly addicted to, to the extent that I play said song on repeat throughout the course of the day and then it no longer registers as a song the next day, similar to when you say a word over and over, and it no longer feels like a word? That type of thing... πŸ˜‚

What are some things that would generally be considered to be trivial/small, that when they happen, never fail to just make your day?

It's the small things that start meaning a lot.

I work nightshift and last year I had nightshift from 22nd Dec to I think 28th Dec (7 nightshifts) I do it for the money and so I am off longer til 10th January.

I always wear my christmas sweater to work and before I go to my nightshifts I stop at the bakery. I am 30 and this lady, I assume around 26-28 commented on my sweat "Hey you look good!".

I am not searching for a girlfriend because I have a wife lol but this still somehow felt nice. My wife also comments on how good it looks etc. but when strangers comment on that it's still kind of different.

I grabbed my coffee2go, sat in my car, called my wife and told her a young lady hit on me but eventhough I am old asf (31 lol) and she laughed and wished me a good nightshift.

When my wife and I go on vacation to italy and a car that is still with you after 3 hours drives is also nice. The last time the car behind flashed his headlights 4-5 times before he left our highway and waved. I waved back. We never saw us again.
