Space

What made me happy today? Space!
Or, to be more precise, what people who have been in space said about it.
Going into space and landing on the moon are experiences that are bound to have an impact on a person. I can only imagine what it must feel like to look at our little blue dot from so far away.
Good thing that there is a cartoon to tell us what it's like, based on what Edgar Mitchell once said. But not only Edgar Mitchell has had a thing to say about seeing Earth from space, many others have too. You can find their quotes here.
I'm still hoping that one day I might be able to see our little blue dot from space myself. Who knows what the future holds...

Power

What made me happy today? Some powerful words.
Work is keeping me rather busy, and I have a sore throat. I hope I'm not getting sick. But then I stumbled across this article, and it cheered me up.
Partially because the quotes are so true, and partially because I have fond memories of some of the movies quoted in there. Personal favorite? The last one!
Yes, I confess, I'm a huge Star Wars fan :-)

Need a pick-me-up

What made me happy today?

Life isn't always easy. Sometimes everything seems to be going wrong. Or you just woke up with a terrible mood. On days like that I like to read something that'll cheer me up a bit, and hopefully have me feeling better fast. Like this.
Of course, having great friends and plans for a cozy evening of anime help too :-)
