~ Henry David Thoreau (Walden)
Recently, I was reading over my Google Reader posts and found this quote posted by Chiot's Run. I find this is an important thing for me to remember right now, since material riches have been sparse, it makes me happy to focus on the simple pleasures that fill life with joy.
Such as... ...the smell of a freshly baking pie in the oven... ...long walks on foggy mornings... ...listening to the sound of the rain on the roof at night... ...digging in the dirt and watching things grow... ...the cozy aroma of a wood fire... ...looking at little distant fuzzy objects in the sky with my telescope... ...soaking in the tub after a long day of work... ...jumping in mud puddles... ...reading a good book while drinking a hot cup of tea...
What are some of your simple pleasures?

It's so wonderful to stop and take time to notice the little things that make us happy each and every day. If we all did this more often the world would truly be a better place.
