While you’re always invited to send your stories on any topics of your choice related to finding and experiencing the bright side of life, the editors at The Happy Human also like to give you some inspiration in the form of writing prompts.

• What makes you want to dance? Does certain music, or a certain setting, or being with someone in particular make you feel like dancing?
• Do you have a beloved radio station, maybe from your teenage years?
• What’s the best concert you ever attended?
• What other memories do you…
