What pleases me:

A long ride on my horse, a good book, a tractor drive on a sunny crisp day, fresh flowers, a job well done, connecting with people, a good cup of coffee, a delicious meal, breakfast when Robert cooks, going out to eat with friends, seeing others succeed, getting things done, going to live theatre and especially musicals, music, playing my guitar, riding along in the pick-up with Robert, small surprises, yummy treats, snow storms, Christmas lights, forest trails, snow shoeing, going to movies, running, time to write, hot cocoa with marshmallows, Zotz, birthday cake with lots of frosting, good juicy steak, cowboy church, romance, my boots, bookshelves full of books, the barn loft, long walks, bike rides, spending time with family, baking, making someone happy, prayer, getting a letter in the mail-

It isn’t Earth-shattering, but it is the simple joy of living in all the blessings of God.
