What makes you sing

I know (and I'm glad) I'm alive when...

People I meet for the first time show me unexpected kindness.
Strangers say hello.
Laughter makes me laugh.
Smiles make me smile.
Oranges taste deeper than their color.
Something turns out good regardless of mistakes.
Friends are friends in unexpected ways.
Birds sing.
Known constellations shine and the unknown twinkle.
The heart weeps and the mind sings. Or vice versa.
The path ahead is a tunnel.
I don't have the energy to sleep.
I crave human company and I find it.
My lips and toes tingle.
Anything seems possible.
I do the unexpected - even of myself.
There is mail in my inbox.

I feel alive. And I'm happy about it. ^.^ Particularly thrilled.
