As summer draws to an end much to soon for my taste (I've had to turn the heat on in the house this morning as it was 32F outside) I'd thought I'd share some of the simple pleasures that make a difference in my life.
Too often we are in such a rush to get things done that we forget to enjoy the journey. In the end, the journey is what makes life, and if you don't enjoy it now when are you going to start?
Take time out from your busy day to enjoy some of these little things.
- A brand new book and a whole lazy Sunday to read it.
- Freshly laundered sheets and pillowcases.
- An uncluttered desk.
- An afternoon nap.
- The latest issue of your favorite magazine.
- A massage.
- Clean, sparkly windows.
- Crossing an item off your to do list that has been there for weeks or months.
- An empty dishwasher.
- Having lots of my favorite shows queued up on the Tivo and time to watch them.
How about sharing some of your simple pleasures?
