Many simple delights happen in every day life. In the spirit of bringing more joy into my own world, I’m acknowledging these tiny treasures that I’ve experienced over the past 24 hours:
- Warm sips of fresh coffee
- An honest smile from a stranger
- Sitting near a warm, crackling fireplace
- Watching an old favorite movie
- A taste of freshly made chocolate almond fudge
- Laughing at my boyfriend’s questionable jokes
- Closing my work e-mail and calendar for the weekend
- A tiny dance on the treadmill as a favorite song came on
- That moment just after I put on my lounge pants. Ahhh…
- Tasting my copycat attempt at Camino’s amazing crispy brussels
- Quietly watching my cats as they sleep on my lap
- Opening a Christmas card from an old friend
- Bright sunshine on a relatively warm winter day
- Writing with a smooth, well-balanced pencil in my journal
- Watching flames flicker on my pumpkin latte candle
- Enjoying that candle’s sweet, nutty caramel aroma
- A hug from a friend that I didn’t expect to see
This holiday season, let’s come together and appreciate the momentary gifts that life brings to us each and every day. ❤️
