Pleasure

Do something just for fun - Pleasure is one of life's essential nutrients.

Things that give me pleasure:

Swimming
Sunshine
Sunflowers
Fire (in moderation)
Bright colors
Interesting cloud formations
Learning something new
Understanding something old
Sunset
Sunrise
The way the beach rushes out from underneath your feet with the waves.
Soft skin
picking blackberries
Fresh rosemary
Tree Stars!
Blue water
GREAT music
The way sound moves underwater
Henry street, x2 at the peak of spring at midday
Feeling sexy
The sensation of clean clothes fresh out of the dryer.
The way my hair smells just before it has completely air-dried.
Crisp clean air
Being swallowed by a sweatshirt
The first sip of a great first cup of coffee
The way the air feels, smells and sounds just before it starts to POUR - esp. in the summer.
A book I can't put down.
Snuggling
Being peaceful enough to feel your heart beat
Completing the sunday crossword
Creating!
Cooking
Painting
Hugs
The taste of reallllly green grass! (real grass.)
The smile on the face of a child who has just uncovered mystery!
Candle wax
The exhausted relief that comes from the release of a really great cry.
The way my stomach flips when I reallllly like someone
Bubbles
Hands through my hair
Dancing even if it means looking silly

With so many things that give me joy - there is no reason to be unhappy.

I love you,
M
