Appreciating the small moments really changed a lot for me. Years ago I was also hunting vacations or special events. But I came to the conclusion that this actually made me unhappy. I was depressed everytime I came back from vacation. Now I try to integrate "mini vacations: into my daily life, like taking a walk, reading a book, and spending a lot of time in nature. This brings joy into my life almost every day. 😊

When I think of joy, I am reminded of the birth of my first child. Watching my wife endure 36 hours of labour was excruciating, but seeing my daughter born brought joy! More recently, watching a slide show at my nephew’s wedding of him from baby to newly wed, and seeing him (as a baby)in a picture in my father’s arms brought joy. Seeing my dad again, after being dead for 10 years. People bring joy.😎

One of the ways I've found to add joy is to pair my coffee in the morning with jazz, a candle, and either a book or watching all the wildlife in my backyard. The books lend to aha moments and self reflection, and the creatures living their lives lead to a simple sense of wonder. There is so much to be amazed by in our natural world if we take the time to slow down and appreciate it 💚

I totally understand what you mean by “squeezing the last drop of pleasure” by elevating the daily routine. For me, the biggest joy in life is my morning routine. Before the sun rises, before everyone’s awake, I love the feeling of getting a head start and putting my mindset in a positive space before I start out my day. I’ve been conscious about spending time with each of my kitties too, and it just starts my day filled with love. Thank you for letting us always reflect back on the simple things in life, which brings greatest impact to our lives. Mahalo

Again Sophie, thank you for the beautiful views you show in your videos. I also like the part of where you are making tea with the wooden cup and the wooden whisk (I think that's what its called). I live here in Japan and see those every now and then, however, is that also a Korean way of making tea as well? Are they the same instruments, with the wooden cup and whisk, also used in Korrea? I'd be interested to know. Last week you sent me well wishes for my family in Europe and I just wanted to say thank you very much. I left out that my family there is in Germany and Spain. Not as dangerous as living in the Ukraine, however, they are feeling the sanctiioins and their governments switching the suppliers for oil and natural gas to other suppliers like Qatar and other places. I still worry that the wrong thing can spark a major war in Europe and I don't want to be reactivated in the military and have to go over there but it looks like it's going to change. At least I hope. Thank you again for helping me forget about that and I would like to see a video on recipes that you make in your videos. If you think that's something you might like to do.

I think that the best that happened to me was to find your channel. No I do not have the perfect life and the perfect plan. But I keep doing small little changes that change everything for me. I don't count how many I did through my life because I did too much. Even today I still do. Why? Because I am the creator of my life. I will do everything in my power to be happy. I do pretty much what I want to do when I want to and how I want to. No I don't own my private jet, a Bentley whatever. Not that there is anything wrong with it. But it's a lot and it doesn't mean that it will also make you happy. Just waking up and thinking that you can do pretty much anything. That's enough for me. No financial worries at all. It give you so much options and choices. I could wake up and go on a vacation, do anything I want. Your channel make me complete it makes me see the world differently. That's what I needed. I needed to have another perspective on life. Nothing on this channel will ever be teach at school. Forget it. School is just a name or a pill.

Simple ways to add more JOY: To practice gratitude for what you have in life instead of dwelling on what you don't have. To hopefully not worry about the future or dwell on the past because it creates anxiety and depression. Although it's not always easy at times. To keep things in context and in perspective. Hop on my bike for long rides in the spring/summer and autumn months of the year. Try to read more. Watch Malama Life videos because they bring a sense of calm into my life. O_o Listen to music. Writing things down or putting them into my phone to save mental energy. That includes quotes, motivational reminders, goals and everyday mundane tasks. Some retail therapy for items that I actually need and have an actual purpose. Putting on a fragrance because it literally makes me feel good. It may be strange, but I find grocery shopping fun..
