"most of us miss out on life's big prizes. the pulitzer. the nobel. oscars. tonys. emmys. but we're all eligible for life's small pleasures. a pat on the back. a kiss behind the ear. a four-pound bass. a full moon. an empty parking space. a crackling fire. a great meal. a glorious sunset. hot soup. cold beer. don't fret about copping life's grand awards. enjoy its tiny delights. there are plenty for all of us."
my personal favourite:
- a pat on the head or a light touch/lift beneath the chin
- a peck on the forehead or a passionate kiss right in the middle of nowhere (kiss like nobody's watching)
- i don't fish but would love to do it one fine day, and i'd already be jumping over half a pound of bass or whatever i can get (just don't gimme a shoe)
- hmm..how about the reflection of a full moon over a beautiful creek
- an empty parking space...yes!
- a group of friends seated around a crackling bonfire, by the beach
- a glorious sunset, by the beach
- hot tomato soup
- chilled can of coke
and i won't mope over the oscar.
what's your favourite?
