Maybe we could start a thread for those “simple pleasures” that awaken our senses, bring us some joy/relief/comfort. Might be a silly idea. Maybe already a discussion like this. There was a discussion about what makes us smile awhile back. However I can see how it may be perceived as unhelpful for many. Just my gibberish again.

hmm...well, I keep in mind my friend, about the gardening. @Former-Member
I've done it for most my life. Almost exclusively for the last 12 years as a homesteader. But, I don't have that life anymore. And I do sorely miss it.

I can even take it upon myself to build whole garden beds beginning with newspaper. Quite proud of myself. @Kyle1

the air feels like those plums from yesterday, from the ice box... @Former-Member
The moon is clear and beginning to bloat. Because I look up from my touch screen, I see it with some fish eyed blur to the point where it looks like twin satellites up there...or piscean fish.
I feel...
Like a fingerling
