Have you noticed that it is the simple things that usually bring us the most peace, happiness andcontentment. . .
* a steaming cup of hot coffee and a warm gooey cinnamon roll
* a hummingbird stopping by to say "hello"
* a fresh bouquet of flowers from your own garden
* giggles
* holding a young child's hand while you go for a stroll
* the quietness of early morning
* a double rainbow
* a student's face lighting up as he or she is saying: "Now I understand!"
* sunrises and sunsets
* a kitty cat stretched out in the warm sun
* curling up with a good book or favorite magazine
* a warm fire on a cool evening
* good health
* the love of family and friends
and the GREATEST GIFT: life itself!
Thank you God for all of life's sweet blessings! Dear friends, I am wishing for you the "simple things" in life. Blessings to you as you enjoy this autumn weekend!

Just to appreciate the simple things in life is to know peace and contentment. Lovely post Vicki.
A beautiful post and oh so true! There are so many who need to realize that the simple things are the most important and there is always a blessing in each and every day!
