Simple Things

We live in a world so wrapped up in getting ahead , making the almighty dollar , that most people never stop to really enjoy the simple pleasures in life any more.

I realize there are many who would like to and because of stressful circumstances cannot, that's not who I'm referring to here. The world in general is to busy trying to get "rich" .

For example, simple things . Stop for a moment and ask yourself when did I last enjoy this "moment"

(1) A walk holding hands with the one you love.
(2) The smell of a beautiful flower
(3) The hugs of a little child , grandchild
(4) Looking at the stars on a clear beautiful night
(5) The feel of a brand new pair of socks ( one of my favorites)
(6) Cuddling with your sweetie in front of a campfire
(7) The wonder and excitement in the eyes of a child learning
(8) A beautifull sunset or sunrise
(9) Watching two squirrels play hide and go chase in the tree .
(10) Jumping in a pile of leaves
(11) The smell of a campfire burning
(12) That song on the radio that describes what your feeling right at that moment

(13) reading a book, melting chocolate in your mouth in soft pajamas.

The best ones dont really cost us anything but our time , and are way more valuable to us than any monetary value we assign to our time .

And I'm sure if we stop and think about it we could add dozens more to this list.

So that's the assignment ! Stop and think , what would you add , or what are your "moments" of simple things that are so precious that somehow get pushed aside in the rat race we call life.

Take the time ! Enjoy those moments ! And most will have to agree , Money isn't even on the list !

Have a Wonderful Day Everyone
