The first time I tied my shoes on my own. Feeling the wind in my hair. Finding out it was me that got the job promotion. Receiving a gift I had my eye on for my birthday. Surviving the white water rapids of the Snake River without a scratch. Waking up late for work, only to realize it was Saturday. Coming home to a surprise party with most of my friends there. Remembering the last embrace my mother gave me. Sitting in a meadow just listening to the sounds of nature. The first ride on my bicycle without my dad holding on to the back my bike. The peaceful sound of nothing in the sky while I soared over Palm Springs. Hearing my son cry for the first time. The excitement of catching my first fish. Cooking dinner and someone else did the dishes. Finding an old love letter I forgot about. A friend calling me, just to hear me laugh. Watching my son take his first steps. Owning my first car. Camping at Yellowstone, with the clearest starry night one has ever seen. Flying an antique Steerman biplane in the front seat. My son sharing his life’s accomplishments to me. Gazing out from the mountaintop to see the canvas of autumn colours. Hearing from a friend because they missed me. Being first in line, for once. Receiving flowers for no reason. Hearing, “I love you” from someone that I love. What are some of the small pleasures in your life? One knows when happiness is found, when one no longer seeks it.
