Simple Pleasures

 Simplicity~lack of complication 

Have you captured the feeling (emotion) when something evokes special memories?

A calmness can be felt  and a smile can be seen.

 It is almost like your heart wraps around it.

These longings have no wrong, if we don't have these, something has gone wrong.

  We were wired for simplicity.

  We were not made for rush-hour traffic and the fast paced life.

  Calmness over chaos is what our bodies prefer.

 When we start to slow and enjoy the simple things, our senses come alive.

  We start looking, resting and enjoying life.

 I would hope we all slow long enough to remember, enjoy, but most of all, be grateful.

I had set the jars of banana peppers in the window to enjoy the beauty of them.

 (Yellow is my favorite color, I might add.)

  Then when I looked at the picture later, I realized what a sweetness!

  The zinnas in the milk glass vase and my special plates.

 I have finally taken the peppers out of the window,

 but the plates and the vase have a permanent home there.

  I hope you enjoyed my view and you didn't even have to do the dishes!

"The Spirit of God whets our appetite by giving us a taste of what's ahead.

 He puts a little of Heaven in our hearts so that we'll never settle for less."

  2 Corinthians 5:3-5 MSG
