LOVELY THINGS

Biting into a crisp apple

The smell of freshly mowed lawns

When autumn leaves flutter down like snowflakes

Piping hot coffee in the am

Cobblestone streets

Smiling at strangers

When a good book moves me in ways that no movie can

Meeting people who have found their passion

Finding a song that would be in the soundtrack of my day

Solitude

Sharing my love and having it returned

Letters and packages in the post

Listening to the waves crash on the beach at night

Driving with my windows down and the heater blasting

Everything about travelling, including airports, TSA, packing, unpacking, getting lost. Just everything.

Cuddling

Curling up with a good book in front of the fireplace

Cafe-lined streets

Fresh flowers

Dancing in my underwear with a bottle of wine

Christmastime at Disneyland

The sense of accomplishment at the end of a productive day

Elderly couples who still hold hands

Hanging twinkle lights

Applying make-up before a big night
