This morning I was thinking about the things I enjoy most . . . the simple pleasures of life.
Here are a few of mine . . .
- a cup of coffee (my new fav is Starbucks' salted carmel mocha) & conversation
- a good pedicure (with a fun design!)
- a dance - especially if it comes with a solid dip at the end
- hearing my daughter's full-on belly laugh when something strikes her funny
- a quiet dinner at home with Dan
- a vigorous workout
- watching the neighborhood kids play together in the street
- reading a book
- taking a nap
- a picked-up house (including the bed being made)
- a challenging thought, book, or blog - the kind that make me change
- visiting family & friends (either going to them or them coming to us)
- when my daughter asks to pray for someone
So thankful for the times I'm able to share these with you! :)
ReplyDeleteTwo things. First, this makes me think of the Appreciation chapter in the book The Soul of Adulthood. It's a read that always makes me take a deep breath and tear up.
ReplyDeleteSecond, this makes me think that I should write a list, too, because simple pleasures bring such joy.
Thanks for posting.
