Straight talk, conclusions drawn from logic.
Good music, some scientific advances, like what’s happening in the green technology right now. I listen to stuff like this and it gets me in a great mood. It’s ironic the song is called that.
Mother Nature!Good music,good art and good friends! There is alot out there :)
Good friends and great weather.
Well, those good friends are at the field flying.
Great music, weather and sermons!
Strapping a firework to a bottle of vodka & whoooshhhh!! Hang on a minute, this question deserves better than that & after all, it’s asked by the Aloha dude :¬) So here’s my genuine answer. What makes my spirit soar? My kids & god dammit, life itself!! There…that better :¬)
Seeing the beauty of the planet. Excellent music.
Watching those mine workers being brought up the shaft to freedom.
Being on top of a hill or mountain works for me.
Seeing my kids and friends smile is number one for me. A great day in the outdoors is a massive feel good. And days like yesterday and today to see man triumph against all odds, like yanking those Chilean miners out of the ground, does it for me too!
Feeling loved
Good Theatre/Opera

@xxii I agree. Where I live (South of England) we have started to experience more “crisp” wintery weather after a fairly mild and wet summer. I love it!
Well, I do tend to ride on the backs of seagulls, whenever I see them in flight.
And “soar” along with them.
Music and sex. Food, and a kind word. Especially from the kids.
Music, acting, and a huge gust of wind
Being with people I love. Laughter. Windfalls of any kind (and money is happily accepted).
Red Bull? It’s just a theory currently being promulgated.
Seeing a dog released from living on a chain into a fenced area that I helped to build this weekend was a pretty nice feeling.
(This weekend’s project hasn’t been edited and uploaded yet.)
@syz : What a fantastic video! Thank you for that and for your volunteering with them.
Good music and art definitely does. Pines of Rome by Respighi is the most spirit-soaring music I’ve ever heard (and I just listened to several recordings of it today). Music inspired by pine trees ftw. I think it relates to my love of nature, of course. Being in the outdoors can make me feel that way as well.
When someone tries to harm an animal for no reason and the animal turns things around and teaches the person a lesson It makes me happy.
When I get a A+ on my midterm!
(i just did about an hour ago)
:DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
People that are nice to everyone!
I’m a staunch member of the church of nature.
I purposely live in a beautiful area that constantly gives moments of spirit soaring joy for just being alive with eyes to see. ;-)
Seeing my dog run as fast as she can. It is the physical embodiment of joy.
Gold stars in kindergarten. Views like from the bow of a boat. Successfully helping someone. Sharing good food.
Last miner safe…dramatic chileans…lol..5k lurve…
My mate, my dogs and me back in civilization. My spirit couldn’t soar much higher!
@syz – that is the happiest video but it brought a tear to my eye as well. I loved it, thanks for sharing.
Chatting with someone that doesn’t make smug, ignorant smart ass remarks because they actually know how Libertarianism works.
oh, when I get a lovely text massage, or somebody tells me something restorative, I feel some butterflies inside of me. it’s a strange warmth filling me suddenly. It seems to be my spirit soaring
Being within 10 feet of my love…
