Quiet mornings.

Sing-a-long songs with my toddlers in the car.

Sunset and a beer with my wife.

Runner’s high on a long run.

Cuddling up and watching a DVD with the wife and kids.

Walking outside with my son after it rains.

My “life” talks with my eldest daughter in the car.

Writing a post for 50,000 people, in my pajamas.

Feeling sick and lying in bed all day without having to call my boss.

Showing my 2-year-old the clear starry sky.

Cheering my kids on in their soccer games.

Time alone with a good book.

Freshly brewed coffee.

My hot veggie soup on a cold day.

Writing before the sun rises.

Fresh, cold berries.

A long conversation with a friend.

Succumbing to a mid-afternoon nap.

Playing kickball in the yard with my kids.

The feeling of satisfaction after a workout.

Waking up to a clean, uncluttered living room.

Laughing at my 4-year-old son’s wacky sense of humor.

Screaming my head off when my son scores a goal.

Collapsing after finishing a marathon, exhausted but in love with life.

Spending time with my mom and sisters on a Saturday afternoon, baking sweets.

Letting a warm chocolate chip cookie melt in my mouth with my eyes closed.

A long hot shower.

Walking with the sand between my toes as the sun goes down.

Listening to the sound of waves lapping a white sand beach.

A hug when I need it.

Dew on the grass in the morning.

簡單的生活

寧靜的早晨。

與我的小寶貝在車里唱一首悠長的歌。

夕陽，啤酒，愛人。

長跑后的酣暢淋漓。

蜷在沙發(fā)上，與妻子孩子一起看碟。

和我的兒子在雨中散步。

在車里與我的大女兒談論我的“人生”。

穿著睡褲，寫一篇文章，讀者50000人。

感覺不舒服，躺在床上一整天，不用給老板打電話。

帶我那兩歲的孩子看星星布滿的夜空。

為孩子們的足球賽加油喝彩。

獨自一人，讀一本好書。

喝一杯煮好的咖啡，精神飽滿。

寒冷冬日的一碗熱蔬菜湯。

在太陽升起前寫作。

新鮮，冰鎮(zhèn)的漿果。

和好友的一次促膝長談。

午后禁不住打個小盹。

和我的孩子在花園里踢球。

經歷考驗后的滿足感。

醒來發(fā)現(xiàn)躺在整潔的臥室里。

對我四歲兒子獨特的幽默感哈哈大笑。

為我兒子的進球得分尖叫。

在跑完馬拉松后癱倒在地，精疲力竭但摯愛著生活。
