I think the happiest I felt was when I was in Antarctica for 10 days including Christmas and New Year. It had to be the happiest, most wonderful place. The other time before that was when I was at high school in home economics class, all my friends are around me, the sun is shining and I'm just watching the world go by with not a care in the world.

Standing on the bridge at the base of Yosemite Falls getting sprayed by ice cold water. As corny as it sounds it was this really transcendent experience for me. I felt like I was outside of myself and completely at peace with the world around me.

Despite all these beautiful, amazing places that everyone has posted, I think the happiest I have ever been is curled up on my couch with a cup of tea cradled in my hands, in my pyjamas and my dog asleep on my lap, having no worries or stresses or burdens or things to think about and make my mind heavy... just feeling lucky and blessed and all of that crap

Those moments don't happen very often, but sometimes, somehow they do and it's nice.

Regardless, Janszoon, that is ****ing beautiful. I've always wanted to go to Yosemite National Park.

Maybe Pedestrian was getting mixed up with these Seven Sisters:-

This series of cliffs is iconic for Brits because they face across the channel to France and are refered to in the classic sentimental war-time song that went; "There´ll be bluebirds over the white cliffs of Dover..." (i.e. things will go back to being nice, but not until the war´s over)

I´ve also been lucky enough to have had moments when the world´s natural beauty has transported me out of myself, so that I feel connected to a benign and fabulous world - but not in places as spectacular as Yosemite and Antarctica.
( Antarctica, btw, is not only one of the most extreme environments on the planet, scratch the surface of it and it´s even weirder:-The Lost World of Lake Vostok | Watch Free Documentary Online )

Here´s a little vignette of what made me a lisnaholic; aged about 10, I spent two feverish weeks in bed with tonsilitis. The first day I was allowed out of bed I found myself sitting on the green carpet of our living room floor, the sun was shining, I was playing this Stones B-side over and over again when it suddenly dawned on me, "I don´t feel sick and I don´t have to go to school either!" When you´re 10 years old, that´s bliss!

Still get a buzz of well-being from this song; a little echo of that innocent euphoria of convalescence.

When I meet new people, from different places. when I am with family, friends, animals and other things that I love. Everything else is arbitrary.

I can't name any particular event in my life, maybe ones that involve moving forward, significant changes, ect. I can say however, that when I got my Telecaster that might have been the happiest I had ever been. I don't know why, but it looked so cool, played amazingly, and my favorite guitarist at the time had used one for this side project he was in. This might sound stupid, but I wanted that tone, that play style, that flow. This is going to get really cheesy, but when I got a hold of that guitar I knew I wanted to be a musician.

Sometimes at night I go to my cousins house a couple minutes away. He lives n a lake and I take his kayak out into the middle and just sit and look at the stars. I wouldn't say it's the happiest I've ever felt. I'm sure that moment or moments happened a long time ago, but it's certainly the most content feeling that I can get. I've had a rough couple years. This year being the worst. It's hard to find these moments.

I know that feel. I used to do the same thing, so relaxing being in the middle of water and just knowing all the bull**** is on land.
