The Simple Life

The simple life, although hard to reach it in a big city…

• Quiet mornings.
• Sing-a-long songs with my toddlers in the car.
• Sunset and a beer with my wife.
• Runner’s high on a long run.
• Cuddling up and watching a DVD with the wife and kids.
• Walking outside with my son after it rains.
• My “life” talks with my eldest daughter in the car.
• Writing a post for 50,000 people, in my pajamas.
• Feeling sick and lying in bed all day without having to call my boss.
• Showing my 2-year-old the clear starry sky.
• Cheering my kids on in their soccer games.
• Time alone with a good book.
• Freshly brewed coffee.
• My hot veggie soup on a cold day.
• Writing before the sun rises.
• Fresh, cold berries.
• A long conversation with a friend.
• Succumbing to a mid-afternoon nap.
• Playing kickball in the yard with my kids.
• The feeling of satisfaction after a workout.
• Waking up to a clean, uncluttered living room.
• Laughing at my 4-year-old son’s wacky sense of humor.
• Screaming my head off when my son scores a goal.
