And I don’t mean the romantic love that we all know and talk about.
Have you ever felt that certain kind of happiness that makes you smile every time you remember? There are certain things in our lives, certain things that cost so little or none at all that make those smile painted on our faces.
I fall in love with a baby’s smiles and laughter. Those unguarded moments when he/she smiles at you and reach out his/her hands to touch, to feel, to make his/her self comfortable in your arms.
I fall in love with sunrises and sunsets. The wonder of the rising sun gently caressing your back and the beauty of the sunset signaling you to just admire it and take a rest. The beauty of an unexpected rainbow on a cloudy day. Those clouds passing by in a rapid move and you wonder what they’ll bring, rain or a glimmer of the sun’s face.
I fall in love with lovely surprises, kindness from people I have just met and thoughtful friends who never fail to make you smile. Even meeting them once in a while, listening to their voices over the wire, hugging and embracing them when you see each other.
Morning coffee or tea at night while reading a lovely book and you fall in love with the characters and the place. And you wish you’ll attain the same success as they did in the story.
The heady scent of flowers in your garden and the peace and quiet gardening brings. You fall in love with creating a lovely panorama of different plants, the wonderful feeling it brings to your quiet world.
The undivided attention you get from your pets. The way they lick your face and your hands showing unconditional love and the non-judgmental way they look at you. They bring so much joy within.
I fall in love with the music of yesteryears. The nostalgic way you hum a song because you have memorized the lyrics over the years. The way you swing your head to the music, smiling and at peace listening and remembering those years that gave you joy.
Ah, I could go on and on but I’ll reserve them for another post. Have a great day everyone. Think happy thoughts always.
