Share the Joy: Simple Pleasures

So, let's see. . . .  where's my joy?

Let me think.

Ok, you'll think I'm nuts,

but I love going to the market

where things are all organized and colorful.

It's a feast for the eyes and nose. . .

and even the taste buds,

since there are usually free samples of interesting cheeses

and fresh fruit.

I'm enjoying my new bicycle.

This isn't mine --- my new bike is a bright blue

and customized with a shortened crank and pedals

since my left knee complained about the longer ones

(it's had four surgeries, poor thing, 

since I blew it out skiing 20 years ago).

But I love this cheery pink and especially

the basket full of flowers.

My basket -- purchased yesterday and not yet hung in place --

will be carrying a soft, furry puppy

instead of flowers.

Too bad we can't make it all the way to this cupcake dispensary.

Seeing the deer in my back yard always makes me stop

and smile and hold my breath. . . . 

not move too quickly so I don't cause them to bound away

in fright. I'm just learning about deer-resistant plants,

but hey --- everybody has to eat.

How are you cultivating joy?
