The Good Things In Life
Permalink Closed


 


The good things I find in Life


waking up before the sunrise seeing the deep blue sky, and knowing another day is being.


Taking that frist breath of fresh air in the moring when you step outside. take that deep breath and you have the energy and strength for the rest of the day.


seeing chikdren play being happy and laughing, warms my heart


watching the open fire burn gently always a wonderful friend


The frist sip of hot coffee in the moring. Ahhhhhhhh Bless!


walking bear foot in the summer, I feel so alive.


sitting in the coffee shop in winter when its cold, and watching everyone shop and the slit darkness outside and the lights, the world is alive and hope is everywhere.


a genuwine smile and a geniwine laugh Priceless.

Hi Frog


A good posting I think....


What about -


The first rain after a long dry spell and that earthy smell.....


The sweet fragrance of grape hyacinths....


Walking the dog through the woods - especially when the bluebells are in full bloom - a sea of hazy blue against the verdant hues of trees coming into leaf..... 


HAVOCA and this forum.....


Watching children as they sleep.....


The fresh comforting 'smell' of clean bed linen - which has been drying in the fresh air....


Beethoven's Pastoral Symphony .....


watching the powerfulness of the sea and the timeless continuity of the waves crashing on the shore.....


Friends .....


Hugs.....


I could go on and on and on......!


A brilliant posting - gets you focussing on the positive bits of being on this planet.

Dear Liz and Frog


 


Thank you!


Listening to Dvorak "From the New World" to get me back to work - good music to do accounts to!


Thank you!

I've been feeling a little down today so I thought I'd add....


-A letterbox full of mail from friends and family

-The first flower you grow yourself

-A butterfly on the first flower you grow yourself

-Thick sun-warmed carpeting under bare feet

-When the train comes just a few seconds after you get to the station.

-Waking up excited about the day ahead

-Going to bed happy snug-as-a-bug-in-a-rug

-Ladybirds on my laundry window

-Making people smile when they've been sad

-Rainbows

-Rainbow cellophane window stickers!

-Stripey socks!!!!

-Cheerfulness

Thanks Frog,


I thought your posting was great. Sometimes it really helps to be reminded of all the beauty and positive stuff in the world. Can I add to the list :-


A big pot of hot tea (made with real tea leaves, bought from a shop that sells them in Chinese caddies) - to drink whilst reading a really good book.


Stroking the cat that visits me at work - she sure knows how to relax


The first butterfly of Spring - so tender


Watching people being kind to each other in unexpected situations - small actions count for a lot


cuddles - I don't get enough of these


The smell of vanilla pods in my kitchen cupboard


Smiling happy dogs playing games in the park


All the support from everyone here   - Thank you loads! You make such a difference


Cheers!

I think this posting is spot on.   Thanks for starting it Frog. 


I'm not feeeling great at the moment but just to consider what's good and positive allows me to just glimpse a chink of light in all this darkness..... so how about


finding the first conkers in the Autumn all shiny and brown and new.  


people here who believe in me and tell me I'm an ok person. 


a long hot bath and some space for me.


Finding a good book to lose myself in.


The first snowdrops.


Having a doggy moment with the dog.  Talking to her and feeling that she's listening to me.


Receiving unconditional love from the above dog.


My son telling me he loves me.

Seeing the robin watching me


Pottering in the garden


The crispness in the air


the smell of my roast dinner cooking


My Sons visiting and staying instead of rushing in as though its duty


My daughter not asking for a fiver cos shes hard up


the feeling of warmth I have at the moment and hoping it will last.


Thanks again Frog
