What are the activities that you enjoy? Given that not everyone enjoys the same things, what are the reasons that you derive joy from those activities?

Man, why do you ask?
Are trying to uncover something
My business is mine alone
Shame will not be witnessed

Singing does it for me. Some like having an audience, but I enjoy capturing the audience. Just having the knowledge and capacity to be a cut above when in comes to singing is a joy in itself, but where much is given much is required, so I explore all the ways that my abilities affect others and myself; those seen and unseen. It's a form of maniputation that is all GOOD. Entering the minds and hearts of all kinds of folk, and taking them for a ride that brings them to a better place even for a moment is comparable to nothing else. Of course there are other ways to achieve this, and I admit that I know a few... I once had a talk with a man that stated something that I will never forget: a merry heart is like a medicine. I enjoy bringing the merry to ya'. Singing is one of my best ways. So in a manner of speaking I am the fixer, the doctor, the one who brings about healing. My other ways are less orthadox so I'll leave you with that. I just feel real good when I make others feel really good...so u take care!

~~~ Right now my enjoyment is listening to Bob Marley on my stereo while I continue to teach myself how to use my computer. This is new to me and I'm not taking any classes,so it's a slow process, but rewarding. Hearing my favorite music relaxes me while I plod away. I love the sound of Reggae and particularly Bob Marley, because he had some powerful messages in his songs which I truely believe in. I can do all this alone, and not be lonely ; which is nice. It would be even nicer if I could type. It took me nearly a half hour to write this, but that's okay. I still enjoyed it. Why? Because I did it!. Sappy huh. ~~~

Visual.

I am extremely visually oriented.

I am a big movie and theater fan, always have been.

I am also a voracious reader. I pick up another book as soon as I've finished on.

I love paintings, I drift around for a whole day in the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, or any art museum and visually analyze the still lifes and portraits.

I love museums, carnivals, and amusement parks.

I never cared much for music and never go to concerts or owned a stereo or ipod or any music 'noise' machine.

Ahhh. Another Guru. I enjoy sharing my knowledge on Yahoo Answers. I hope that my answers will enlighten someone or perhaps lighten their day. I don't know everything, as every guru must know, but I am willing to share what I know, and as a result I often find serendipitous results in learning something new from other answerers.

I also enjoy spending time with my wife and family and friends, reading, fishing, trying new ethnic restaurants and lots more.

the present moment is what delivers joy in any experience. the reasoning is merely a logistical technicality.
but: for most of us it is different things that clue us in to the non-stop bliss that every moment is poised to deliver us.

for me the mother of all joy indentifiers is children. the 1-12 year old range.
they seem to be hardwired into the constant joy that is always available in every breath.

music & growing food come in at a close seconds.

creating. anything really, but mostly settings, charecters and plots for them to enact. sound is fun to create, it's the patterns, i like looking at things and finding the patterns in them. i like talking to people, specifically about their ideas.

i can't say why I enjoy these things. with the patterns i thinks its the challenge of it, and the creating is like that too, but when i'm doing it i get a head rush and my body buzzes with energy. people make me laugh, and i make them laugh, and everyone loves to laugh. I think.
