1000 reasons to be happy.
I thought it would be a nice idea to collect at least 1000 reasons why we can be happy, so if you wanna join, write one or a few things that make you happy. Numerize them though.
Inspired by LongRoadToRuin in the chat room.

864. The miracles of understanding. You're a ghost driving a meat covered skeleton made of stardust, pressing buttons made of the remains of plants dead for millions of years. Those buttons are triggering miniature pulses of lightning down cables that stretch for thousands of kilometers to be interpreted by a machine performing millions or billions of calculations per second to shine a very specific pattern of light into the eyes of another meat-covered skeleton pilot. And then that specific pattern of light conjures up ideas! That's not even getting into that everything is mostly empty space, and how HUGE the universe really is. Also, we have inside our skulls machines capable of actually experiencing happiness, and then pondering what it is! If that's not a reason to be happy, and to experience a sense of wonder, I don't know what is.
