Which of life's simple pleasures bring you a lot of happiness?

[Teddy6767]

I'm someone who has had a pretty crap time in life in my earlier years.
Things are a lot better these days and I now have such an appreciation for all the small things that others might take for granted.
Some include -
Cuddles with my cat,
Laughing hysterically in bed with my handsome DP,
An evening to myself where I can catch up with all my favourite programs,
Home cooked lasagne (especially the crispy bits)
Enjoying a gin and tonic in the garden on a sunny day with my family.

My life is far from perfect. I don't have much money and I don't enjoy my job. But taking the time to find joy in the little things has really made me feel so much more content.

I'd love to hear what simple pleasures you all love ❤️

Walking in woods
Having a drink/tea in the garden especially on a late starry evening.
Buying a mug that I really like and using that.
Chats and laughter with family and friends.
Watching something on to that I'm really enjoying

I broke my leg badly this year, I was off my feet for over 2 months and when I first tried to take a step it was virtually impossible, so now my greatest single pleasure is just to be able to walk - across the room, holding something in my hands, and omg being able to step into the shower and stand under the water instead of having a miserable flannel wash - best. Thing. Ever.

(My children are pretty amazing too but I can enjoy them so much more now I can carry the baby and do stuff with the toddler again.)

Not quite as nature-driven as most of these, but I love doing my shellac nails in a bright colour and then staring at them for about two days afterwards. I go everywhere admiring my own hands!

Summerisdone I really loved your list and I hope things improve a little for you soon and you make more friends where you are.
