Things I like

In no particular order,

• • learning a new concept that gently kneads my brain
• • sipping coffee in a moment of pause with no rush
• • techno music, with an extra shot of melody, in a dim space
• • arts and crafts, textures, making things with hands
• • walking barefoot with a meditative rhythm
• • feeling the burn of survival instinct during a workout set
• • stretching my toes, back, and hips. and the crackling it brings
• • sun baking my skin in an icy weather
• • kissing and cuddling with loving, soft, and warm body
• • fifteen minute naps that heal the weariness in my soul
• • resting my cheeks on my hugger's shoulder, rubbing their back
• • cold water to drink and to bathe in in hot weather
• • a mother's concern, care, her gentleness, her kind affection
• • resting in the fragrance of a flower
• • laughing with my stomach, crying in joy, at the same time
• • warm fuzziness while meditating, like a pot full of stew on a low burn
