ENJOYING THE SIMPLE LIFE

Taking time to enjoy the simple things in life.

Fall is one of my most favorite times of the year. 

So did I move at just the right time or what? 

The trees here, in Oregon, are amazing.  Everywhere I go I just wanted to stop and take pictures.  No, trust me.  My family would back me up on that I stop…at…each…and…every…opportunity. 

Everyone I meet I want to shake and say ~

“Do you know how amazingly beautiful it is right now?  Have you seen these trees?” 

But shaking would be rude now, wouldn’t it?

When I am driving, I just look at the trees, while watching the road of course, and think people…….LOOK AT THAT ONE! 

Of course, after you live somewhere for a while, you can lose that feeling of awe and wonder. 

I hope I never do!!!!

For now, I am going to enjoy the simple life…or the simple things in life! 

No matter where you live or what your surroundings are, please make sure to look around you at the most amazing and beautiful things before you. 

You better do look around before someone shakes you and says “Have you seen it?”

It will be gone before you know it.

When simple is more than enough, you will feel happy more than enough. – Mehmet Murat Idan
