Focusing on Happiness—Week One

What I’m happy about this week: being able to make my own coffee.

Coffee!

My coffee maker suffered a mishap a while back, and with the weather being hot, I didn’t feel much like fixing it. This resulted in many trips to coffee shops for delicious iced beverages.

I love going to my coffee shops. I love the people I meet there and I love the experience of getting out of my house! But the drinks are more expensive and not as healthy as what I make for myself.

This week, I fixed up my coffee maker just in time for the cooler weather to start. I can make my drink just the way I want, and am surrounded by the wonderful aroma of coffee for hours.

I had no idea how happy it would make me to have this morning ritual back. Loading up the filter, listening to the water trickle through, the gush of steam when the pot is almost ready at the very end.

Bliss.
