There are so many things we wish we could have in life. The surprising fact is that most of the things we usually want are simple and ordinary. Are you guilty of denying yourself the simple things in life? A few of the simple things we want to have, we need to have, should have are like some time to ourselves, time for prayer and time for our hobbies.
Do you have a few simple things that you would love to have in life, yet do not find the time or the opportunity to do so? It could be something as simple as going fishing, making plans for the future, doing a bit of art work or taking care of your garden or improving your home.
Never deny yourself the simple things in life as those give us pleasure and make us happiest. Would you like to sip a glass of lemonade or wine as you watch a sunset or a sunrise, on your own or with a loved one?
Clouds pass overhead
Change their form
I look up
Lie to myself
Guilty on grass
Enjoy my time
Telling the truth
Taking it easy.
The small things of life were often so much bigger than the great things . . . the trivial pleasure like cooking, one's home, little poems especially sad ones, solitary walks, funny things seen and overheard.” – Barbara Pym
