Fifty Things I Like

Every so often, I am in the mood to make a list.  Favorite people would be a dicey thing here, lest I inadvertently leave someone out, and he/she gets all butt-hurt, which would not be my intention.  I have found the same to be true when I make a list of favourite places- someone will come on and say:  “Hey, YOU LEFT OUT ……..!!!”

I will go with things, and if I left out your fave, make your own list. LOL

Here goes, in no particular order:

1.Sunrise

2. Blueberries in summer

3. Apple cider in autumn

4. Mountains

5. Smiles

6. The sound of children playing happily

7.  The ocean

8. Snow at Christmas

9. Hiking

10. Lean meat

11. Hummus

12. Nose rings or nose studs, on young women

13.  Dachshunds

14.  Joyous laughter

15.  Historical sites

16. Dreams

17. Sunsets

18. Bright moons

19. Magical fantasies

20. Restful sleep

21. Songs sung well

22. The Baha’i Faith

23. Fireworks, on a country’s National Day

24.  Thanksgiving Dinner

25. Gatherings of good friends

26. 15-minute mid-day naps

27.  Healthy-looking human forms

28.  Rottweilers

29.  Horses

  2. Great list, Gary! Rottweilers are my favorite dog breed! You can probably tell from my Rottweiler posts on Facebook now and then lol. I miss my girl. She was the sweetest Rottweiler! Dachshunds are gorgeous, too! I post those on Facebook now and then, too. I love the beach of course and I’d love to take a road trip across the USA someday. I’d eat lasagna everyday if I could lol. Could you come up with 50 things you dislike? I think that would be interesting to read as well! 🙂

  3. I like the variety form of a favorites list, like you have done. When I am journalling, sometimes I just make lists of 30 things, like 30 things I am thankful for (gratitude list in Recovery parlance) or 30 ways I could improve my communication skills. And the person who taught me this said, “Do 20-30 without thinking, then throw away the first 10, because the later ones will ring more true. I am taking a journalling course this fall semester, so maybe after that has started I will learn more ways to get to the “honest” writings.
