On Top of the World

On my fortieth birthday, some time ago now, one of my cards said,
Not so much over the hill, more like on top of the world.

I really liked it, it cheered me up no end. We all like the feeling of being on top of the world. It means you feel really, really happy and free and your heart is full of positive, good emotions.

So how do you get that feeling in your everyday life? Not everybody likes jumping out of aeroplanes, bungee jumping, paragliding ,climbing to the top of Everest or  whatever that makes you literally on tope of the world. There are easier ways, like eating pizza on a terrace, going up the nearest hill, or listening to this cheesy song by The Carpenters and falling in love.
