The little things in life

[one4all]

Being able to feel the touch of something, after your fingers have thawed out.
The feel of secure ground beneath your feet, after your feet are thaw out.
The warmth on your face, after the frost is gone.
That little scrap of food/water in your stomach to help ease it.
A random stranger that takes the time to listen and try to help you.

please add yous

The flickering flame of a candle, the light and shadows its produces.

The joy of having a comfy bed to lay in.

 

[Plankter]

The calming sound of raindrops hitting your window
The tranquil sensation of twilight, after an exhausting day comes to an end
Having nothing to do on a warm, cloudy weekend

 

[Jessamine]

Unexpected splashes of colour in nature.. bluebells in a wood, a robin redbreast, violets and primroses etc
Also the sound of a plane crossing a still summer sky.

Sound trying to reach my ears while swimming underwater
The movement of the waves swaying me around
Driving with the windows rolled down on a nice warm day
Spinning around and around outside in light rain

Sharing a look with a random person and knowing exactly what they are thinking.
Humming a few bars of a song and then the very same song comes on the car radio.
Feeling the ebb and flow of the motorway as you move in and out of the traffic.

I just read what you wrote about your past traumas and saw the lovely Anne Frank quotes in another thread. And now these...

I admire you so much @Thereisnothing ! You seem to find beautiful, shiny, gold nuggets in the mud and dregs of life. May you never lose this wonderful quality.

The speeded up breating without any kind of fatigue while swimming in the sea on meth.
Making "bad" things with my kids
It was only a joke, but when the teacher said that my son hited another kid (this kid started first i checked the story before that), i told him never to hit anyone anymore in front of any witnesses. Little thing, but really precious.
When my daughter and sons say " i want you to increase that song and drive fast"
My little son blowing at all the candles at all the tables in a restaurant, thinking it's a birthday cake light.

Getting tips for working my thankless job. (I'm not exactly supposed to accept tips, but after 6 years working there I don't care anymore)
Listening to my favorite part of a song I'm listening to over and over again.
Watching my favorite Hockey team.
Reading.

Fell free to pass the thread to others, if you thing it could help them get theirs minds off of lifes BS

Having your tent already pitched in the rain while everyone else is panicking and getting wet. Thinking maybe you should help them, then thinking 'nah' and having a roll-up first. Then giving in and going to help them anyway.
Finding a pair of jeans that fits.
Knowing that bloke in the car park is going to try and sell you a stolen stereo or iPhone any moment now.
