There are times where I am so stressed out and it is difficult to remember all of the reasons I smile. With Thanksgiving passing, it is important to reflect on all the things to be thankful for. Family and friends are the most obvious things, but sometimes it is the small things that can bring me the most joy. Here are just 20 things that never fail to make me happy-

1. The first bite of food that I've been looking forward to eating all day

2. Hearing a song I haven't heard in a long time and still knowing all the lyrics

3. Waking up from a nap and not feeling groggy at all

4. Reading something that makes me laugh out loud

5. The moment when I'm talking about something and someone knows exactly what I'm saying and gets really excited

6. Having discussions about something I'm passionate about

7. Watching a cute scene on Netflix and having to rewind immediately because I want to relive watching it

8. Taylor Swift concerts

9. Getting home from school and putting on baggy sweatpants

10. Laughing until my stomach hurts and I forget why I'm even laughing

11. Listening to a song for the first time and knowing ever lyric is relevant to me life

12. Watching one video on YouTube and somehow ending up being on YouTube for hours

13. Taking a test and realizing that I know all the answers

14. Walking through the door and being greeted by a cute puppy

15. When people I don't know compliment my outfit (or really anything)

16. Getting dressed up for an event

17. Finding a cute shirt at a store and actually being able to afford it

18.The song "Remembering Sunday" by All Time Low

19. Going out to lunch with my brother when I haven't seen him in a while

20. That feeling when I'm at a concert and the lights go down and everyone starts screaming at once
