Simple man

2 Comments

What’s a simple pleasure in life that brings you joy? – Asks the daily prompt.

I’m getting a little out of sorts so I thought it would be a good idea to list more than one thing. And remind me that there are a lot of simple pleasures in life because it gets tough sometimes and these things are forgotten.

  • Being healthy enough to get out of bed each day.
  • A warm summer night.
  • Music
  • Convertibles and Manual Transmissions.
  • A warm shower.
  • The sound of my grandchildren’s voices and their hugs.
  • Watching a sunrise or sunset.
  • Washing my car.
  • A walk with my better half.
  • Taking and sharing photos.
  • A fall evening by the firepit.
  • Beach sand between my toes and the sound of waves hitting the beach.
  • Observing nature.
  • Remembering where I left my keys on the first try.

With a lifetime and a half in the Newspaper industry I'm preparing for my retirement career as an Artist, Writer, Photographer and Video content provider. I'm a proud father of two wonderful children and I'm still married to the first girl I fell in love with and probably only one that would have me.

  1. I’ve got a manual convertible. I do enjoy it, but it bugs me to wash it. I don’t lose my keys, because I always leave them in the same place. There is a ‘homing thingy’ on them so I could find them with my phone. 100% on the sound of waves on the beach.
