Hi! This is a place for you to share everything positive with kind strangers on the Internet.

Made new friends? Found love? Got a new wonderful job? Bought something cool? Found something amazing on the Internet? Maybe had a wonderful celebration? Maybe something else? Or you're just in a great, grateful, relaxed mood and want to share some of it with the world?

Share it, and let the fire in your eyes brighten everybody's day, for joys are best when shared!

Rules:

  1. No negativity: This is a safe and positive space. Make sure your posts and comments respect that. If you feel offended by any of the posts - feel free to message admin(s)!

  2. No discrimination: Posts and comments should not contain any forms of discrimination and hostilities to any groups of people.

  3. No gloating: If you got happier by making someone else feel worse, this is not the place to share it. This is a place to express gratitude, and share moments that will feel warm to everyone.

Rules are work in progress and subject to change. If you want to help moderating the community and keeping it alive, let me ([email protected]) know! Everyone is welcome!

I went for a walk this morning. The air smelled like wet leaves and the sky was that weird gray-blue that feels kinda peaceful.

While I was walking, I met and talked to older woman and her scruffy little dog. We ended up walking a bit together, just chatting about how dry everything’s been lately and how the early morning drizzle was good for things.

When the first drops started falling, we both laughed and said it was about time to turn around and go back home.

It was one of those small, random quiet moments that sticks with you. Great start to the day. :)

Today it's super nice and the sun is out. So I am gonna go for a scooter ride and hopefully get some beautiful spring pics. I'll post them when it happens!

I love this community by the way!

Ive had days like that. I would even go as far as saying ive noticed how our state of mind matters much more than we think in how we are met by others.

There is also research that shows that our thoughts and therefore our emotions affect our physical body.

About 10 years ago i had a very, very positive state of mind for different reasons, and it led to me meeting my current girlfriend. We have stayed together and live together and all is pretty good still.

So yeah, our minds are powerful. They are our entire perception of the world. :)
