Look Around, Look Around, How Lucky We Are To Be Alive Right Now

Things That Keep Me Going:

Dappled sunlight through trees in the morning
Glistening frost
Birdsong

Lush grass

The smell of wet leaves and earth
Crisp cool air on my skin
Warm Sun on my skin
Coffee

The smell of woodsmoke
Fairy Lights
Music that makes me feel
Music that makes me move

Stories
The memories of being so stupid happy I thought I’d explode
The memory of glowing
Dance
Dancing

Snow
Theatre
The smell of vanilla
Ducks on the river
The river

The rich velvet of rose petals
The giddy scent of roses and hyacinths and peonies and lilies, any number of other flowers, too
The smell of onions frying with butter and pepper and garlic and white wine
The memory of feeling warm and snug and cosy (I suppose Hygge would be the correct term, but I don’t use it on principle)
Comedy, humour and laughter

Colours
Prosecco
Lit fireplaces
Bookshops
Christmas trees

New blossoms budding on trees in spring
Friends to confide in
Sun shining over large stretches of water, making it sparkle
Sparkles!
The sound of waves crashing
Salt on my skin and hair

Hugs
Fiery sunsets
Bright moons
The vibrant yellow of daffodils
The smell of old books
Summer breezes through my hair

Much Love,

Kirsty
