these are a few of my favourite things

In no particular order:

  1. the first spring blossoms on the trees, especially in oakden
  2. sunsets at the beach, especially when there is just enough cloud to make it interesting, but not so much cloud that it drowns out the brilliant shades of colour
  3. singing, especially before an appreciative audience
  4. helping someone else achieve something they could not have done on their own
  5. drinking quality coffee/red wine with a quality friend
  6. seeing new places, experiencing new things, meeting new people, especially when those places, things and people are interesting and enjoyable
  7. songs that grip my heart
  8. listening to the rain and thunderstorms when snug in bed
  9. accomplishing something difficult
  10. the way that, when i am standing on the platform at melbourne central, i know the train is coming before i can see it or hear it, because i feel on my face a gentle breeze which builds up to a strong wind just before the train arrives at the platform
  11. relaxing on a saturday morning with brekkie, coffee and the paper at a bridge rd cafe
