Simple Pleasures

Enjoy simple pleasures.
Let stress fade away.

The first rose and the last lilac met in a bouquet.
Their sweet perfume was a simple pleasure.
Did you experience a simple pleasure today?
I hope so.

  7. I like this, Barb.

    Oh yes, I spent some time in the garden, and for the first time this spring, just sat and relaxed out on the garden bench.

  9. This post is so lovely, Barb ~
    I'm enjoying it while having my lunch here in my very warm classroom ~ It brings a smile to my face and reminds me to check on my own rose bushes this afternoon. They are a tad bit under our eves and may actually need water even though we had so much rain last night*
    Thank you for the quiet and beautiful moment*
    Have a happy weekend*

  10. Hmmm, I'm about to take Sioux to the vet -- not a simple pleasure. I'll have to think on this some more, Barb. It's been one of those weeks! :)

    Beautiful photo. Love it!

  11. In the bouquet, the cycle of life or transience of life of coming and going is contained.

    Yes, I did. Hope you, too!

  12. Every day :) The simple pleasures are the longest lasting and are freely and abundantly available to all. I think 'simple' is a misnomer ;)

    Lovely post, Barb!

  17. There seems to be a theme of observing simple pleasures at the moment and is something I've been attempting to do daily. Today I watched a chook foraging and was delighted with its antics. I think tomorrow I'll try to remember perfumes and see what happens.
