My attitude keeps me from taking anything seriously.
I am an absurd person. I see life as absurd.
Life isn't what happens - it's how you deal with what happens.
Except in the case of a bullet wound.
Happy activities: I ride my bike instead of driving a car.
Every time the price of gasoline goes up - I smile bigger.
I took the Stimulus check and bought an electric bicycle. I can go much farther
and not worry about getting back, or about steep hills.
I have an APP that shows me weather radar so I'm prepared.
I stay informed so I won't be ignorant - but - I don't argue with people
who are minimally informed (and only from one source.)
People who say and do provocative things - I try and avoid them and do not engage.
If forced to engage I remain calm and inquisitive.
I have abandoned the past (not wallowing in regrets). Today is enough.
All the above has to do with TEMPERAMENT.
I'm no good at worrying so I don't do it.
And that's what makes me happy: not seeing things as happiness destroyers. -

What makes me happy? From a 68 year old male. I play soccer 2 to 3 times a week with much younger people. That makes me happy. I play guitar and learn new techniques and songs that are beyond my ability when I make progress doing music that makes me happy. I walk my dog 1 mile every morning and go to the gym 5 times a week, that makes me happy. I am vegan, It makes me happy that I do not have to eat another sentient being to maintain my existence. I read and study and try to be aware of what is going on in this world. Doing that makes me sad. So I have to go back to the top every day and start all over again.
