Simple Pleasures

There is delight in blowing bubbles in your
backyard, making homemade popcorn, warm scented baths, and quiet nights at home.
There are blessings in bread crumbs, worn shoes, broken hearts, and the sound of God's whispered voice.
There is rapture in exciting books, all kind of music, slow dancing, and the sound of a raining night.
There is society in deep meditation, earnest prayer, quiet study, and the silence of conscious thought.
There is joy in wisdom, knowledge and understanding, and especially in the voice of deep intellectual stimulation.
There is pleasure in skipping stones, pathless woods, solitary beaches, and the quiet peace of being one with the Universe.
