It’s the little things. Paying attention, remaining present, and acknowledging gratitude for small and simple things that make me happy is key to a life well lived for me. I’m starting a fresh list here in September 2023.
- The young man who provided music at church yesterday, playing the grand piano and singing so beautifully. His name is Tim. He’s a true gift.
- Tomato sandwiches on white bread.
- Rain, glorious rain.
- Flocks of birds undulating across the sky
- Puppy perfume. It’s a thing and Molly is wearing some. (Thanks to our breeder who sent some home with us when we brought Murphy home in 2020.)
- The prairie.
- Combines and grain trucks.
- Dirt roads.
- Old-fashioned granaries.
- Tractors.
- The one-or-two-finger greeting drivers give one another when they meet on prairie roads.
