A kiss
Coming in to the air conditioner from sweltering heat outside
Time with a loved one
The sunset
A thank you
A heartfelt apology
A compliment
An unexpected but needed rain shower that breaks the humidity
A stranger’s smile
Someone holding the door open for you
The moment you free your body from tight clothes or shoes
Watching your lover, child or pet sleep
Holding their hand (really hold it)
The sound of their voice (one day you may long to hear it again)
Their touch
Being really listened to
A deep sleep
Getting lost (because you are never really lost, you’ve just found a new way to go)
A good laugh
How it feels after anger dissipates
A happy memory
A rainbow, anytime, anywhere
The stars in the sky
Being applauded in any way for any reason (exception: sarcastic applause)
That smell of breakfast
The smell of coffee
A pet’s demand for your attention
A really good turn of phrase
Sunlight
Long sips of cool water
Any moment in which you feel loved
Any moment you feel connected to the world
What would you add to the list?

What a wonderful list! It lifted my spirits just to read it. I would add walking in nature. 🙂

Great list! Listening, really listening to the sound of a loved one’s voice really stands out for me. In case their voice is ever silenced you want to remember it…

Exactly. I often try to remember my mother’s sweet voice. I think I do…

Same here. And my dad’s. And now my son’s. Their voices live on in my memory, thankfully. 🙂

Thank you. It was seven weeks ago. He was just 44 and died suddenly of heart failure. But I do still feel his presence and being able to hear his voice in my head really does help. Your list of things to savor is a good reminder for all of us! Thank you for that. 💕

Words fail. Sending you whatever small comforts can be found. What us his name, if you don’t mind?
