My Health, the Loving Environment around me, the Love I got to experience and be in this year, visiting new places, learning to slow down. 5 Reply Hot Sauce1 month agoHot SauceBeing aware of the mystery and complexity of everything adds delight to my life. To think that I am made of stardust, that subatomic particles can influence each other at seemingly infinite distances without any time passing, that people mysteriously seem to have precognitive awareness despite this seeming to contradict the Standard Model of physics, that people have accurate veridical perceptions during near-death experiences, and that a whole variety of other wonders and mysteries exist out in...Being aware of the mystery and complexity of everything adds delight to my life.

If yes, then it comes from giving . Giving time, a smile, appreciation . I don‘t have money which I can give but I can give good thoughts or prayers for people in my surroundings. A kind word or a light touch can give joy. Looking into somebodies eyes whom I don‘t know often is rewarded with a smile from human to human. I love that. 8 Reply Chester1 month agoChesterWitnessing the products of work done with great care and attention. 4 Reply S1 month agoSbeing in a genuinely loving enviornment 4 Reply Butterfly1 month agoButterflyWatching the gawky fledgling starlings gobble up the soaked mealworms I put out for them and the sparrows collecting beakfuls to take back to their chicks still in the nest. Watching the flowers come into bloom.. Interacting with my two granddaughters. Tasty food and a hot cup of coffee. 6 Reply Gillian3 weeks agoGillianAhh how wonderful. The simple things in life are beautiful. Enjoy the grandchildren Butterfly. 0 Reply Charlie T1 month agoCharlie TI find so many things delightful. From yesterday alone (my day off) here’s a few things that brought delight and joy. Sitting outside in the morning with my coffee. Watching my cats play. Making tacos with my girlfriend. Taking a walk with our neighbor. Eating cherries from the tree. But mostly, just being able to be intentional and present in those moments. 7 Reply carol1 month agocarolCarol Bast relationships, meditation opens the door to the space of many aspects of appreciation, adventures, novelty, successes, experiencing delight, meeting my needs, … 3 Reply Nicki1 month agoNickiWaking to the scent of coffee brewing, of mixing the sugar and milk and slowly savoring the first sip. Spotting the first skunk cabbage, hepatica, twin leaf in the still barren, brown and cold winter woods, witnessing signs of the coming warmth while bundled in my winter coat and scarf. Late afternoon light in the woods. The way the air shifts and changes on a walk, warm in the open meadow and like a smooth cold stone on my cheek in the shade by a stream.

Spotting the first skunk cabbage, hepatica, twin leaf in the still barren, brown and cold winter woods, witnessing signs of the coming warmth while bundled in my winter coat and scarf. Late afternoon light in the woods. The way the air shifts and changes on a walk, warm in the open meadow and like a smooth cold stone on my cheek in the shade by a stream. Knowing when and where to expect the moon, following its phases. Molly, my dog, her innocence, her purity, her joy in just being, her renewed excitement over the same things again and again, dancing in circles in anticipation of the same meal that she eats every single day. Sinking into a book when I know I am reading just the right thing at just the right time. Noticing what seems to be insignificant – a tiny mushroom growing from a fallen branch, the odd ice formations on the bank of a creek, the delicate little bloom peeking from the leaf litter or amongst the refuse of the ditch. Witnessing the sparsely abundant growth of spring, when the once delicate and unsure little seedlings just begin to burst with the confidence of survival. The first bite of cold watermelon on a sultry summer day. Read More11 Reply dragonfly1 month agodragonflyFreshly washed bed linens, dried in the sun on a clothe line. My cat sitting on my shoulder purring. New blossoms on shrubs and trees. A colourful sunset. A pastel sunrise. Dandelion flowers punctuating my lawn. So much to be delighted about. 10 Reply Mica1 month agoMicaThat takes me back in time, dragonfly – freshly washed bed linens, dried in the sun – thank you! Dandelions, too – not so far back in time. My daughter and her friend, when they were young, happily carrying bunches of dandelions. More thanks! 2 Reply LisaBeth1 month agoLisaBethBabies and toddlers, flowering lilacs and plum trees in May, really good dark chocolate, the bird’s nest that has appeared in the hanging plant outside my window, going new places and learning new things. 6 Reply Laura1 month agoLauraA cup of tea and a really good book, music, a deep blue sky, watching my grown children build satisfying lives, old friends, the beauty and kindness that pop up unexpectedly each day … 6 Reply devy1 month agodevyPlaying my guitar and learning how to play. Looking up at the night sky and seeing the vastness of the universe with all those points of light . Watching and hearing a family of blue jays that have made a nearby cedar their home. 4 Reply Mary Pat1 month agoMary PatOur dog, our family, a walk in the wooded areas like yesterdays walk when, as we were walking, several deer ran past us about 15 feet away….it was so delightful. In April I remember being so filled with delight when I saw the seedings I had planted popping through the soil. To visit with a friend I haven’t seen for quite awhile, to hear raindrops on the roof(we are in a drought),so many things add delight to my life! And now for coffee…a definite delight…. 11 Reply ch1 month agochFlowers 5 Reply 1 2 Next » My Private Gratitude Journal Write an entry in your private gratefulness journal Get Started This site is brought to you by A Network for Grateful Living, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit.
