Did you know the phrase “On Cloud Nine” is a metaphor for being happy, contented, in a state of bliss or happiness?  For me, the joy of returning home brings me happiness.

Little did one know; the literal meaning of 'cloud nine' is from an early scientific classification system for clouds. 'Cloud Nine' was what we now call 'cumulonimbus'. It was chosen for the metaphor because it is a very soft, fluffy-looking cloud.
