Anonymous asked: What makes you happy?

I was going to reply with something sarcastic like “not much,” but that isn’t true. It’s just difficult to keep happiness in mind when I am in the mire.

Here’s a partial list, because I like lists:

Flying airplanes
Swimming at an empty beach
Sailing
Traveling
Exploring
Mountains
Great writing
Writing you want no one to see
Thought-provoking reading
Soul-shaking music
Listening to beautiful singing
Learning
Teaching
Peace of mind
Orgasms
Eating pussy
Fucking outdoors
All sorts of variations on sex (haven’t tried ‘em all yet)
Sexy girls
Anthropological studies
Extinction
Smiles
Laughter
Sincerity
Caring
Trust
Happiness in others
News that you’re doing well
Helping
Being productive
Independence
Freedom to choose
Clarity
Getting what I want
Getting what I work for
Being in control
Being around people who let loose
Fantasy
Reality

Thank you for asking.
