The Simple Life

The simple life, although hard to reach it in a big city…

  • 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.

  • 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.
