I came across this list today while sorting and tossing more paperwork from my “home office.” I have discovered that I have saved some interesting things over the past few years. This was from 2000. Seventeen years ago. Here’s the List of some of the BEST things in life, according to several people who were asked to participate. Falling in Love Laughing so hard your face hurts Lying in bed and listening to the rain outside Chocolate milkshake A bubble bath Hot towels out of the dryer No lines at Wal-Mart Getting mail A hot shower Finding a sweater you want is on sale for half price Having someone tell you that you are beautiful A long conversation with an old friend Waking up and realizing you still have a few hours to sleep Finding a $20 bill in your coat pocket from last year. Your first kiss Playing with a new puppy or kitten Sweet dreams Swinging on a porch swing Watching a good movie with someone you love Winning a competition Making chocolate chip cookies Holding hands Riding the best roller coaster Being tickled Watching a sunset by the ocean A pat on the back An ice cold drink on a really hot day Having someone give you that special look Having someone play with your hair Hot chocolate when it’s snowing A walk in the park A surprise Getting out of bed in the morning and thanking God for another beautiful day What would you add to this list? I would add: Visiting an old friend Floating in a swimming pool by yourself Listening to beautiful music Climbing into a warm bed when its cold outside Sitting by the fireplace and reading a book Dancing with the one you love Holding your newborn in your arms There are so many more things in life that bring us untold happiness. Even though there is a lot of bad news in the world, we have a lot of simple pleasures to enjoy, so we should count our blessings as often as we can. What do think?

Those are all things that bring joy and satisfaction. Family is definitely important.

There are some great things here. Certainly it is the simple things that bring most pleasure. Not many on the list are material things. Most are to do with the emotions.

That's right! Simple things that tap into our feelings and emotions bring the most pleasure.
