SIMPLY GOOD THINGS


Some things are unequivocally good, different for each of us.  If you like lists--and many of us do--listing them is a pleasant reminder of what's good in each of our lives.  I ran across someone else's list that prompted me to make my own.  Maybe this will do the same for you.

Simply Good Things

  • being alone in a bookstore
  • phone calls with friends or family
  • days when you meet a goal
  • crafting, making art (or music)
  • when your writing flows
  • listening to music you love
  • laughing with family
  • having private jokes
  • driving with the moon roof open
  • being with someone who really listens
  • remembering something that mattered to you
  • times when you know what you want
  • good books
  • naps
  • lying in a hammock  under a canopy of green
  • a friend who always makes you feel good about yourself
  • words that describe just how you feel, a poem, a song . . . 
  • finding something small that brightens your day
  • a old photo that brings memories
  • sunshine after rain
  • swimming
  • changing seasons
  • the fragrance of newly mown grass
  • a long marriage between people who are still in love
  • anyone who is grateful for you    
Somehow the more we think about what to us is simply good, I suspect the more blessed we feel.
