Enjoy the little things of life, for one day you’ll look
back and realize they were the big things.

What little things do you enjoy in life?

 

 

** Sitting down to have a meal with your family?

 

** Reading Bed night stories to kids before tucking them in bed at night?

 

** Strolling hand in hand with your spouse?

 

** Making your grand mum or grand dad laugh, or listening to interesting stories they tell, that happened decades ago?

 

** Watching your kid take part in a play at school?

 

** Hugs from Close friends and family?

 

** Peacefully watching a Sunset or Sunrise?

 

 

 

** A relaxing day in the park on a sunny day?

 

** Nice Bubble bath at the end of a cold winters day or even better – A Jacuzzi?

 

** Feeding pigeons, pets, maybe lions too? :)

 

** Ordering a Pizza or Takeaway and eating, while watching a movie with  loved one(s)? Not forgetting the bottle of Wine.

 

** Cooking your favourite meal?

 

** Watching your favourite Artist sing Live in concert. (OK that’s not a simple thing of life, that’s a Hair Raising moment of Life!)

 

So, what would you add to the list?

 

What simple things of life do you enjoy?

    You are so right Elena, those simple things in life are so important.

    Watching a little bird build a nest
    Watching the cat sleep on his back with his feet up in the air.
    Sitting outside and watching a beautiful sunset.

    Reading articles like this inspire me aside from the morning walks with my spouse and crazy moments with my kids. This is a great idea for an article.

    Excellent post; the best things in life are the simplist things and often the things we overlook the most.

    I saved this page, it reminds me of how I used to overlook the small things and how I miss them now, even the act of taking a walk along the beach at sunset, I miss that a lot.

Long walks on the beach, a cup of coffee and a good book. playing with my little nephews and nieces, long talks with my bestfriend….so many good things to enjoy in life :-)

    LadyE…Great list…I’ve never thought of a list of the simple things that I do that I enjoy will have to take stock of that…great suggestion…As for feeding the lions, I thought just the Ramsbottoms did that!!! Poor Albert!!! Anyway I voted that I like this one because it was refreshing and because you wrote it…thanks and take care…

    Thanks so much everyone for commenting and sharing the simple things of life you enjoy. I smiled at them. So simple, but so special.
    They say: The best things in life are free.

    LadyElena, you’re a powerful teacher. I do enjoy the little things in life. Thank you.

  • 1hopefulman on Dec 8, 2010

    So many beautiful simple things, aren’t there?
    Watching the sunset or getting up early watch the sunrise. Looking at the stars or the moon at night. Watching a squirrel or a bird as they search for food.
    Thanks for the reminders. :)
