When I was younger my threshold for joy and contentment was different.

When I was younger my threshold for joy and contentment was different. I didn't appreciate every special moment because there were lots of moments and I thought they would keep coming. At this age I have experience with loss and hardships but I take the time to feel the good with my whole self when it comes my way no matter how small or mundane.
I love the feel of clean soft sheets at bedtime, my morning coffee made just like I like it, a sweet dog on my lap, the opportunity to make a new friend, witnessing a perfect sunset, the mist on my face at the beach, being a helper, and the knowledge that I am loved.
Simple pleasures are where it's at.
The give and take of this virtual space is a special and unexpected bonus and I am thankful.
I literally can meet a new friend here everyday.
In the midst of so much that's hard I realize I'm smiling as I write because the good outweighs the bad. Every single day if I let it.
Good night Mastodon friends.@NorcalGma2
Thank you for being a virtual friend to so many of us here! -

I am the lucky one. This community is the most welcoming group of humans I've ever encountered. Like long distance family.
