The simple things in life

Date:
October 30, 2024

After visiting with friends for two weeks in Europe I know how time spent focusing on mountain scenery and family gatherings can nourish the spirit. I have been on tours in foreign lands where I wasn't sure what day it was. I just knew that I had to be back on board the ship by a specific time or they were leaving without me. Sometimes my only recollections of the day were the photos I had taken. It is when I slow down and take time to enjoy the simple things in life that I truly feel renewed and connected to my surroundings. During my European trip I took time to enjoy our friends' 20 month old son who delighted us with his singing. I also walked through their garden and smelled the fragrance of newly blooming peonies. Last night I took the time to view a full moon which was spectacular. None of these experiences cost a penny. Yet their benefit to me is priceless. I can become caught up in my daily activities and forget that they are not all that provide a sense of fulfillment. Look for the simple things in life that bring you joy and contentment. Be sure to include them as part of your day. You may choose to make a list of them so that, when you are in need of a stress reliever, you can refer to your list and select an item that renews you. What are the simple things in your life that bring you joy?
