"It is difficult to experience moments of happiness if we were not aware of what we genuinely love. Experiment with a new cookie recipe. Take the time to slowly arrange a bouquet of flowers in order to appreciate their colors, fragrance and beauty. Simple pleasures often overlooked.
Let us grasp the awareness of what it is that makes us truly happy. Let us consider our personal preferences and learn how to recognize, then embrace, moments of happiness that are uniquely our own." from the book simple abundance a day book of comfort and joy by Sarah Ban Breathnach.
It's really important to be aware of simple abundances in our lives that makes us happy. We are living once and we have to know how to live. Thanks to my dear friend Mitra jan, I found this book. Although I unconsciously aware of being happy I usually ignore them and think of life as battle to succeed in!!!
I am going to make a list of my simple pleasures.
P.S. I was reading this post of mine but understood that maybe I am exaggerating the situation and seeing myself through the dark window. I do enjoy simple things like buying a small thing, drinking coffee, wearing sweaters and.... I think I am happy although sometimes life may be hard on me and there is nothing to be worry about. :)
