What do you find uplifting?
My mood can almost immediately be raised with a touch of humor-- especially my guilty pleasure.. funny animal video compilations.

A joke. At least one joke per day. It can be corny. That makes my day.

Or really a bad selection of fruit. @silvereyes
A beautiful day in nature, even a gentle rain can.
A purring cat on the lap.
A warm cup of coffee or tea.
Certain books by my fave authors.
Being on the water.
The sound of being under sail, esp after cutting off the motor.
My kids giggling together or separately.
The feel of sun on my face, my hair brushing bare shoulders.
The fragrance of baking bread, cookies, etc...
Coming home to the scent of roast in the oven.
A rousing humor game.
A really good session of YouTube sharing that leaves my sides sore from laughing.
A breeze through my hair.
Certain songs or types of music.
Candlelight.
Certain fragrances (flowers, incense).
A warm bath and unlimited time in it.
Relaxing by a campfire.
Birdsong.
Spending all day in bed with someone. (;
Time off!

For me it is making someone else laugh. Hecklers depress me.

Laughter and music are huge. Lately when I remember to be present and in the moment I kind of get a rush. That quick realization of what your thinking, feeling, hearing, seeing in a way that's just pure observation, no judgment. It's...freeing. And bizarre.

If I stay away from my phone and computer, I feel soooo much better, but bored.

There’s always streaming video and radio.
@ChrisJones Thanks, but it’s the negativity and sedintary nature of electronic entertainment that causes me not to feel well. What I need is a hobby outside my home other than the gym, I can’t be there all day or I’d never recover.
Well believe it or not, I get it. The nature of the web makes it possible for people to communicate 24/7. The boundaries we have in real life virtually don’t exist online. Which promotes a lot of negativity as well as lack of personal interaction. In any case, there are plenty of alternatives. I’m sure you’ll find one that suits you. Good luck.
@ChrisJones I’m done with this site for a while, too much judging going on, not enough discussion. Thanks for being a diamond in the rough, but there is just so much coal around here I’ll catch black lung if I stick around.
Random acts of beauty and senseless acts of kindness. And Gifs with Sound videos.

Writing is the other. Not so much the writing, but the response I get from those who read my stories. The more positive I see on the responses, the more encouragement I get to write my future stories.

A good clown helps.
@ChrisJones love the clowns too. I have many friends who have worn the grease paint and oversize shoes.
Pickin a little banjo. Making music with others. Seeing my great grand kid, a boy, and hearing his laugh. In season, vine ripe tomatoes. Hooking a steelhead. My wife's jokes leading to belly laughs.
Fresh brewed coffee in the morning. Sitting on the porch with the sun shining (lots of drizzle days here in the winter), A favorite CD playing when driving. Smell of baking bread.
