★Three "Little Things" In Life You Enjoy

Just had a random thought about something positive to think about :)

Name three “little” things in life that you really just enjoy so much.

1. Going grocery shopping – I actually LOVE doing this on days when it’s not crazy and crowded. Something about picking out fresh food for a delicious meal that makes me so happy (perhaps the underlying gratitude that I’m able to have such a thing?)

2. Seeing a person smile back at you first thing in the morning. Great way to start the day!

3. Saying “Hi” to my best friend practically everyday. It’s things like this that keep our friendship going strong!

BTW – feel free to come in and add to your list. Don’t limit yourself to three! :)

1. wool socks cos my fee are always cold
2. herbal teas
3. spooning with my husband on the couch
4. sunrises
5. sunsets
6. the smell of peonies

1. Laying down and having my kitty sit on my tummy purring. There is something so calming about listening to my cat purr.

2. Reading a good book that captures my attention so deeply that I lose track of time.

3. Watching my children sleep. They look like little angels – and its the only time they are quiet!! :)

I am living in many dimensions at once; the appearance of being trapped in time and space is only an illusion.

My husband had double knee replacement surgery 6 weeks ago. Prior to this he was unable to walk without a cane and was in incredible pain. His legs were so weak that they had to be straightened before inserting his new knees and his upper thighs had begun to atrophy.

Today he is able to walk almost exclusively with his cane and should be able to walk unassisted within 6-8 weeks.

We actually went out for a short ride yesterday for the first time in weeks and tomorrow he will resume coming with me on our errands.

I am grateful:

That the things we took for granted are now moments to treasure
I have my fun partner in crime shopping with me again
Every precious moment we are together

1. My kid’s giggles
2. Snow storms!!
3. naps

1. hot water bottles
2. fresh air
3. good friends

1. surprise gifts!
2. great co-workers
3. snuggling with my dog

…what a wonderful world….

watching the sunrise seeing a rainbow hugging my kids my dogs face wheni say ,do you want a walk

The love and laughter shared when I see my brother &/or sister.
When I get the rush of a new creative idea or project.
Leisurely taking in the smells, sounds and beauty of the waves at the lake.
When remembering and being grateful knowing that I have been and will continue to be safe and blessed by my universe.

1. Eating dinner with my husband and daughter (and making it beforehand).
2. Creative pursuits: Drawing/painting/playing music.
3. An engaged, productive day at work.

Walking my dogs around the park with a friend

Going for a drive in the country with the windows down

Star gazing, using the telescope and searching the sky

A heating pad at my feet at night when I go to bed, my toes get so cold but when the pad is warmed up before I hit the bed it is just heaven.

1. A quiet home where I can relax away from teh daily hum of traffic and away from noisy and foul words.

Hey MCM! I thought you’d never get here! We hope to share some more of your poetry too! We all live in the neighborhood of open mindedness, near the corner of faith and gratitude; aren’t you in the heart of bmindful?:D Love, jan

1. My children – The way their eyes sparkle, their dimples when they giggle, their sweet little voices. They are precious to me :)

2. Feeling the sunshine on warm early summer days

3. Drinking a warm, frothy, delicious blackberry mocha latte early in the mornings on my way to work.

1. The sound of my friends laughing.

2. Sharing a bite to eat with good company.

3. Good health! (Not so little I suppose :) )

I am SOOO very happy that people are enjoying this thread! Please keep it going with your wonderful thoughts and experiences!

brushing my Golden retriever’s hair, it feels so smooth and silky.
hugging the love of my life and smelling his skin.
feeling the sun on my skin, then dipping into the cool sea water.

In response to themadcookieman’s post:

Life, each and every day that I wake.

Coffee, to start that day! :)

Heart Filled with Gratitude, for this journey of my life. I open my whole and holy Self to receive the blessings of Source.

I’m in on the coffee.
A good belly laugh.
Getting a big task checked off the to do list.

“The trick to being happy isn’t to live in the know, it’s to live in the mystery.”

1) Life or should I say the journey, the surprise twists and turns, maneuvers and ultimate delights.

2) Family (biological, church and of course Bmindful), friends, sharing laughter and smiles.

3) Nurturing my spirit, body and mind.

1) Homemade spicy chili that warms my tummy
2) Hot bubble baths
3) Candle light and starlight shining brightly in the night

I love relaxing whenever I desire

I love letting my thoughts and feelings enjoy each other.

My definition of greatness

is to be greater than your environment,

to be greater than your body,

and to be greater than time.

And if you do, you will be great.

I mean, that’s it!” – Dr. Joe Dispenza

1) enjoying my choices that allow for a good healthy happy life

2) enjoying my decisions to follow thru with what adds to my good life 

3) enjoying any action which adds to creating my life of ease, happiness, security , and all the actions I will say yes to- to help satisfy my desires of my heart.
