It’s the little things

What are 5 everyday things that bring you happiness?

Just feeling fit and healthy feels good and  something to be happy and grateful for. And that goes for Patch too!

The freedom to do as I please is an absolute thrill and delight, every day.

Simple pleasures of a lovely breakfast and coffee.

A walk with said dog, fresh air, exercise, light, and sometimes even sunshine out in the natural world.

I love putting food out for the birds and watching them come day to feed and bathe.

My world is small now. My life is peaceful and quiet. It’s just the way I like it.

In the moment

What activities do you lose yourself in?

WP you asking bloggers about which activities they lose themselves in. Mmm, now then, I wonder what one of them may be? 

Is being out in nature an activity per se? Walking is obvs, but I am talking about immersing myself in nature. Being mindful of every single moment, movement, sound. The smell of the woods, hearing the stream race along. The sun shining through the trees or rain  dropping from the sodden leaves. The crunch underfoot or the slosh of puddles of mud. The birds.

I’m wondering. Maybe I lose myself in everything I do now that I have the time and space to do so?

Messaging with friends, making coffee, listening to the radio, looking out of the window-watching the squirrels, reading the posts of my fellow/favourite bloggers, driving everything, and anything i can think of.  even chilling. Yep, they all have my undivided attention, thesdays.
