There’s a lot of little moments in life

Little delicacies in this existence

That make me happy

Running distance

My husband’s shin rubs after a race

New cushiony shoes

Setting a new PR when it was something I thought I couldn’t do

Connecting the dots at work

After doing some research

On a pretty Sunday morning driving past church

Going to the Gardens instead

Being alone in the forest with my dog

Staring at the lone toad in the bog

It’s looking at wildflowers

On the first day of fall

A cup of black coffee

A hot bath at the end of a cold day in the hospital

Clean hands rubbing my eyes

An enrapturing novel

Compression socks

A day off

Merely being

Finding some sort of meaning

I’m taking a moment for gratitude

And simply to say

Thank You
