I've noticed that at the moment a lot of bloggers are posting 50 things that make them happy. The last couple of weeks I've been feeling a bit down in the dumps with various things, so it got me thinking about the positives in my life... and I suddenly got perspective. Even when things are a bit flat there is always more things to smile about!
