Posts tagged What Gives Me Joy

Love. Laughter. Sex. Friends: new ones and old ones. Learning something new. Excelling in something I value. Dancing. Cooking/Baking. Picking up garbage on the street. Smiling at a stranger. Getting a promotion or raise. Babies. All children, really. Watching home movies. Christmas mornings. Traditions. Chocolate chip cookies. Freshly baked homemade sourdough. A beautiful photograph. Mountain vistas. A cute outfit. Seeing people I love have success/happiness. But feeling successful and happy for myself, too. Hikes through the mountains. Walks on the beach at Fripp. Finding the perfect chair/mirror/accessory I’ve been looking for on Craigslist for $20. The view from Craggy Garden. Good, long talks. The perfect cup of coffee: strong with cream, no sugar. Getting dolled up and going on my perfect date: nice restaurant followed by the Opera. Getting not dolled up and going on my second perfect date: pizza and movie and cuddling on the couch. Traveling. Back rubs: giving and receiving. Nice lingerie. A clean and pretty apartment. Throwing a fun party. Giving sincere compliments to those that deserve them. Feeling like I’m growing and becoming better.

What about you?
