Things that please you

[Olly Buckle]

So many things annoy so many people in Mesfalcon's thread, but 'Let's forget about the whying and the crying, the shooting and the dying and the fellow with the switch-blade knife, let's think about love, let's think about life'. A thread for all those positive things in life that make us smile and feel good.

For starters;
Small children riding on their Dad's shoulders.

Smooth peanut butter.

Baroque music.

Jimmy Hendrix, the ex- paratrooper, playing 'The Star spangled banner' and celebrating his personal love for his country, rather than the 'approved' form.

Graduates throwing their mortar boards in the air.

[T.S.Bowman]

A bit cliche but...

The sound of laughter coming from my son and 'soon to be' step son.

Hearing an old favorite song on the radio.

Finally getting the words to fall into their proper places.

Hello Olly

For starters:

Crunchy peanut butter.

The Uniroyal Raintire commercial.

Carly Simon and James Taylor singing Mockingbird live.

Watching a golden eagle swoop over my tent at fifty feet.

Listening to a Spitfire roar across the sky at 1500 feet.

Flying a glider upside down over the Arizona desert.

The Northern Lights.

Thanks for starting a great thread.

All the best with your writing.

Warmest regards
Riis

Driving with the roof off.

Dark chocolate truffles.

When my dogs rush over to greet me.

The sound of a cat's purr.

The sound of my husband (that's so much fun to say) sleeping.

The sound of my step-daughter sleeping.

Belly laughs.

Church bells.

Storms.

Sunrises and sunsets.

The moon.

At this moment Ams it is seeing your smile on your avatar. Was that taken at your wedding? Beautiful, just beautiful.

It was taken right before the courthouse opened. We had to get out of the car shortly after because it started to rain. We were in our wedding clothes. Being practical people we didn't see the need to have to go home and change for a ceremony that lasted less than twenty minutes. It was a fun day.

hardy laughter

Watching children's surprised face when they first see a magic trick

Rain when its sunny outside

So many things

The yip-yip from a coyote on a moon-lit night
The warm handshake with a friend
cornbread muffins warm from the oven w/ real butter
holding a newborn baby in your arms
watching our three Chi puppies playing "chase" in our backyard
watching and listening to a fly-over of sandhill cranes
