“Spending time with the people I love the most.”
“What makes me happy is being there for people and making sure everyone is all right around me.”
“Sitting down and slowing things down. ‘Cause you know how everything goes by so fast? And being there for people, like, experiencing people be people and being happy for others.”
“My family makes me happy because they are always there for support. Whenever I need them, they are able to give me guidance. And yeah, their love is unconditional and, you know, that’s what keeps me going.”
“My dog makes me happy. … She is just so cute.”
