Simple Pleasures

Assalamu alaikum warahmatullahi wabaraktuh,

Lately I've been rather stressed over a few things in my life and I ask you all to please make du'a for me and my family. But that lead me to think about some of life's simple things that gives me pleasure , I love a simple life. So I'm sitting here on a sunny, Sunday afternoon making the following list: (in no particular order)

* Animals but particularly baby animals(kittens, chicks, lambs,)

* The smell of freshly washed clothes

* Newly made bed

*Walking barefoot on sand or grass

* Watching a surise or sunset

*A funny or cute text

*Looking through magazines for recipes

* A cool, refreshing drink on a warm, sunny day

*Seeing my parent relax

* Colourful, bright flowers especially in a beautiful garden

* A nice walk in the park with the birds, or by the sea or through country fields

*Smell of perfume oils

* Bike rides

* A lovely evening breeze

*Spring

*Seeing my parents laugh or relax

*My nephew when he says 'I love you'

*New stationery

*Eating fruit or veg from my garden

* Watching snow

I've left out acts of worship as I wanted to keep that personal inshaAllah, between me and my Lord . This has been fun might carry it on sometime inshaAllah :-)

until next time wasalam
