Lots of stuff goin' on in the world today that just ticks us off.  So here's a chance to tell all what puts a smile on your face:)

A couple for me-

Happiness is...
    Taking a new guy to the range to shoot for the first time in his life(24, and he grew up in the south!  Only could shoot my 22LR.  Going to the farm soon to play with the big stuff.)

Happiness is...
    Knowing that your wife now knows how to load the 12 ga. (less than a year ago she wanted nothing to do with them) when idiots a block away decide to have a knife fight, and the cops go around the neighborhood on the horn warning everyone they can't find 'em(when I got home from work, she smiled and said she only put the birdshot in:)

Gun related or not, have at it...

Pulling up to the curb in front of the house after working all day and seeing your wife & son standing in the front door.  Then, getting out of your truck and hearing your 1 year old son laugh and yell "DADDY" with his hands up in the air from all the way across the front yard through a closed storm door.[:D]

Uh-huh, you're all jeajous...

Encouraging a student to believe in themselves enough to succeed.  I teach computer classes to adults at a community college.  Many of the older learners come in at the beginning of the semester without faith in themselves to succeed using technology.

Happiness is seeing them overcome this mental hurdle and fall in love with the technology.

It doesn't happen everyday, and I am sure a few drop before reaching that goal, but seeing thier face light up when they have reached the top of that mountain makes me all gushy inside.
