Divinity in Simplicity

Getting internet in the new pad two days before a long weekend is like having a birthday two weeks before Christmas. You get so excited about one new gift, and then ten more just come flying at you. Needless to say, offline living has created tons of posts in my head that I can’t wait to share with you now that I am back on a (more) regular schedule.

This weekend was packed with good times. Again, I missed out on all the Vancouver Pride festivities [read my post from last year re: Pride], but instead filled the weekend with the simple joys of life. These being moments in life that bring back waves of happy memories and fill your present with a smile. For me, these included:

Eating a delicious meal at 2 am.
Tiptoeing around sleeping people.
Hiking up a mountain with my sis.
Eating berries off the vine.
Playing UNO.
Falling asleep in the sun.
Dancing to new tunes.
Learning the answers to tough questions.
Sleeping in a tent in too many layers.
Waking up by laughing.
Dreaming of the future.
Telling the world what you want.
Singing in the car as we drive home.

Great evenings out followed by early morning hikes with my rockstar sis and camping festivities with the lovely LaPorte are to die for. I’ve been rejuvenated and totally inspired.

So now the real questions are: what creates simple joy in your life and what are you doing to ensure you get more of that?
