A walk in the park, with and old dog and a puppy, and two happy children riding their bikes, one still in training wheels, but fast as a bolt.
Flowers blooming in the garden.
Good, dark chocolate.
Green wine (Portuguese vinho verde, light and bubbly).
An uninterrupted dinner, with a luscious salad.
Waking up without rushing to go anywhere, with time to savor coffee and read the newspaper – the comics being the best part of it, so I leave it for last, to finish on a high note.
Laughing with co-workers at lunchtime, in the agency’s kitchen, sharing food from different ethnic backgrounds.
Sitting outside with the neighbors at sunset, for a casual chat, while the children run and laugh, fall, cry, get up and keep on playing.
Going to the beach at the last two hours of the day, to enjoy the soft light on the water and the breeze on my face.
A hug, a kiss, and let’s live it at that.
Receiving a little sweet written note.
A night without TV.
Doing it all over again.
