    Warm sunshine on your skin after a long cold winter.

    A spontaneous hug from a child.

    ..or for that matter, a spontaneous hug from an adult (sans ulterior motives, that is--unless it's someone from whom you welcome ulterior motives--ahem).

    A soft, knowing look from your lover across a crowded or not so crowded room.

    Laying on the pillow next to One, speaking of things that you have not been able to share with anyone else.

    Happy is the man that has not walked in the counsel of the wicked ones, and in the way of sinners has not stood. Psalms 1:1

    Happy is the man that has found wisdom, and the man that gets discernment, for having it as gain is better than having silver as gain and having it as produce than gold itself. It is more precious than corals, and all other delights of yours cannot be made equal to it. Length of days is in its right hand; in its left hand there are riches and glory. Its ways are ways of pleasantness, and all its roadways are peace. It is a tree of life to those taking hold of it, and those keeping fast hold of it are to be called happy. Proverbs 3:13-18

    Happy is the able-bodied man that has put Jehovah as his trust. And that has not turned his face to defiant people, Nor to those falling away to lies. Psalms 40:4

    Happy is the man that keeps on enduring trial, because on becoming approved he will receive the crown of life, which Jehovah promised to those who continue loving him. James 1:12

    “Happy are YOU poor, because YOURS is the kingdom of God.- Jesus

    “Happy are YOU who hunger now, because YOU will be filled.- Jesus

    “Happy are YOU who weep now, because YOU will laugh.- Jesus

    Indeed, who is the man that will harm YOU if YOU become zealous for what is good? But even if YOU should suffer for the sake of righteousness, YOU are happy. 1Peter 3:13-14
