here we go again

Another short night, early morning, long day, unhappy knees, endless border control, humid heat. Fleeing from one busy life to another - changing to the same; but hopefully same will somehow be different. I'll let you know how it goes.

to the simple things

Sometimes it's the simplest things that make me the happiest.

- The first bite of my aunt's chocolate cake.
- Tasting the salt in the sea breeze.
- Feeling the wet sand stick to the soles of my feet.
- Having a hot drink in the middle of the night.
- Seeing the smile on someone's face knowing I've made a difference.
- Catching up with an old friend and talking all night.
- Finishing something I've been working on for a long time and knowing it is good.
- Enjoying a good book or movie.

All those good, simple things - let's do them.
