The Little Things

[Little kaiya]

There are lots of big events in life that are memorable and which are points of celebration but what about the little moments in life? What is your favourite small thing in life that brings you joy, peace and happiness?

For me it is laying on my Daddy's chest and listening to his heartbeat. Even just 5 minutes calms me down, lowers my stress and helps me recenter. It brings me peace that not many other things do.

That's so heartwarming! 🥺💗 I'm glad you trust and love him enough to help calm you down!

For me personally, nights are really peaceful!! I live with a particularly loud set of family members who nag and yell most of the time. It's relieving to get a break from that☺️ Plus, my own inner mind chaos slows down at night!

Being able to feel a nice breeze on a warm night and hear the crickets when it's quiet. I sometimes during the winter time play sounds of crickets to help calm me. I have seasonal depression so it's little things like that that help make a difference.

Having a nice cup of tea to relax with. 😌 Also, listening to the rain falling.

My Daddy and I love curling up in the back of the car with a blanket and listening to the rain. We'll take time to drive out to a nearby trail when there's a storm and just curl up together and listen.

I relate to the family members part so much!
My favorite little moments are cuddling with my pets & enjoying chai before everyone wakes up😊

I enjoy a nice cup of hot cocoa or hot tea. There is a shop in the downtown area where I live called Queen's Tea Pantry that sells boxes of tea bags, many different loose leaf teas and just everything tea related. Some of my favorite music in the background, too.

• Laying a big comfy blanket out in my backyard , laying on said blanket with Dad and @Expired , holding their hands while we watch the stars in silence. 
   
• Putting on my big ass noise canceling headphones and putting on thunderstorm or rainforest sounds , and putting on the nanoleaf lights Brother got me and just watching the lights. 
   
• The Great British Baking Show. Whether I watch this alone , with Dad , with Brother or all three of us together. For whatever reason this show specifically brings me a lot of comfort , I’ll re watch all the seasons just because it’s so comforting. Even if it’s just background noise.
