The little things in life? I couldn't come up with a decent title so I went for little pleasantries because...
Anyways I'm curious as to know what the little things in your life are that you adore. Maybe it's as simple as a relaxing bath after a long day, starting those first few pages of a new book, or eating ice cream on a scorching day. I don't know it's your world not mine, but if you're at all interested I'll list a few of my own personal ones.
The English language - More so the word play and the different styles of the language, it's something I enjoy playing with daily, as long as the person i'm talking to isn't as dull as a potato. I don't know, i've learnt a lot just from experience on what pleases the brain more I guess? It can turn something dull into something more fun, more vivid. Like using imagery, instead of saying "ah we're really deep into it now" I'll liken it to being deep down into the rabbit hole, it plants an image into their head and if they're an Alice in Wonderland fan, then that's a bonus Also I love using the thing where you use words with the same letter or sound at the start, I can't remember what it's called but an example would be instead of saying "choose a piece" I'll say "pick a piece". If you use everything together then it helps to really crank the charm meter up to 11, if you wish to
Music - This one's a given, something as small as finding a new song I really enjoy will make my whole day, especially if the song gives me goosebumps, that's when I know i've found something special. I remember watching an interview with my idol talking about how the pursuit of coffee has ruined the world, that people would rather spend €20 on two coffees that they will eventually piss down the toilet, but will refuse buy music, or an album that'll last forever, and I completely agree. I think one very drunken night I wrote an essay in my notes on the importance of music to me, which brings me ever so smoothly on to my next little pleasantry...
Notes - The notes app in my phone is a goldmine. It has everything from songs, jokes, cheesy pickup lines, drunken thoughts, ideas, dreams, motivational speeches... everything. I'm currently up to 175 but this is a newish phone so there'll be plenty more to come. Every time I open them up and look through I end up cracking myself up with some of the shit I've written. "It's not tarantula level but it's more like a little house spider level" - This was me talking about one of my girl friend's legs when I was drinking with her, which I found so hilarious I guess I wrote it down to cement that memory forever One day I'll try find my old phone because that's full of comedy gold, I was writing a ton of notes during a very uhh blurry period of time.
So those are my 3 little diamonds I guess, at this point I've almost forgotten what the topic is about in the first place. I'm pretty sure the main reason was just to make a pun about trees. But share your little pleasantries, the little things in your life that you adore the most
