The Pacific ocean, rolling up on a sandy beach on a warm summer day.
A tall glass of fresh orange juice, with some whole grain toast, eaten on the patio in the early morning.
Knowing someone’s flaws and quirks and realizing that you cherish them not just despite those things but because of them, as well.
The fresh evergreen smell and soft carpet of pine needles underfoot, on a mountain hike.
A roaring fire, soft blanket, and a fine work of literature on a cold night.
A walk down a carnival midway on a midsummer’s night.
The indescribable joy of sharing all the things you love with someone who loves them as much as you do.
San Francisco, and a fresh seafood dinner eaten on the pier.
Wine tasting and a quaint bed and breakfast in Napa.
The hushed, reverent feeling of a well-appointed library.
The moment when you’re driving through the mountains and suddenly, the ocean appears!
The wind blowing through your hair on a summer road trip.
The sand under your feet, and the sounds of the boardwalk, like music to your ears.
A carefree drive through the canyons, in a convertible.
Building a fire on the beach at Pacific City and watching the dories come in.
A brilliant sunset, as beautiful to behold in the Sandhills of Nebraska as it is setting on the ocean.
Knowing that the most powerful mental, physical, and emotional connections take place in the mind.
The beautiful moment when a forest trail leads into a clearing…with a deep blue lake.
A mug of hot buttered rum at a holiday gathering on a cold night.
A night at the symphony or a play…on the arm of someone you adore.
Holiday lights, as seen from your car window on a late night drive.
A hot day, a cold lake, a fast boat, and some waterskis.
17 Mile drive, and cypress trees in Carmel.
Jazz music by candlelight.
Piano by candlelight will work, too.
Dreams of faraway locales and knowing you’d be there in a heartbeat if given the opportunity.
Never losing hope that someday, sublime joy will be yours.
