happiness shows up in my life if I get an undisturbed night's sleep

if I finish a project and the recipient likes it

if the boys ask for seconds when I've put a lot of effort into a meal

if the Mr goes for a few days without losing it about anything

if I get a message from my daughter who lives overseas

how it feels in my body?

I have more energy, I feel "lighter", my jaw unclenches, I need less to distract my mind from worry, I get more talkative.
