Some Things That Make Me Smile...

some things that make me smile -

lying all comfy in bed listening to the rain, the smell of the house while Im baking, a stranger smiling in the street, seeing an elderly married couple holding hands, breathing in the scent of the bush, scooping up the cold water from the waterfall in my hands and drinking it, finding a mysteriously placed flower on my doorstep, watching children play, receiving breakfast in bed, bumping into an old friend and catching up, sitting on a jetty and watching the fish jumping, watching a glorious sunrise/sunset, spending time with people I love, receiving a big bear hug, being in love, playing with my cats, my 17yo cat curling up next to me to sleep, seeing wildlife while hiking, being spontaneous, finding some housework already done for me, reminicing about the past, remembering kindness shown and given, going driving looking for Christmas lights, seeing a man open a door for a woman. listening to someone singing when they dont think they can be heard, listening to men whistling a tune while they are working, hugs and kisses from my kids and from my friends, being told 'I love you", being told 'thank you', afternoon southerlies after a hot day, just enough milk left in the fridge for a cuppa, sharing good times with friends, watching butterflies, admiring the intricate work of a spiders web, being caught in a rain storm, friends showing that they care, being told you did well in an exam, knowing that someone somewhere is thinking about me, receiving unexpected presents and messages, being taken to lunch, finding chocolate hiding in the fridge, knowing that I am loved, looking at a newborn baby and wondering what lies ahead of them, knowing that there are mysteries still undiscovered, watching a shooting star, finding a feather on the ground.....
