Simple Pleasures...



The older I get; the more I enjoy the so called "little things" in life.... waking up to birds chirping, the warmth of a freshly poured mug of coffee against my hands, the first bite of a croissant, the smell of my daughter's perfume that lingers when she's gone off to catch the bus.... the list goes on and on...

Some may equate the enjoyment of these simple pleasures with being simple minded...
I equate it with being present, being grateful in the "ordinary" and...... being happy.
It's that simple. :)

  1. Makes me think of "resting in the work." Simple concept.... not so simple execution!

    We have had some really beautiful sunsets around here lately. Glad I've been able to enjoy and appreciate!

  3. Reminds me of my wall sign that I purchased in Augusta, KY on our last girls trip. "Enjoy the little things in life for one day you will look back and realize they were the big things." I love this sign and the memories of that trip. Can't wait for another get-away like that! Ice tea in a glass ball jar from the little general store! Good times!
