These are a few of my favourite things..

Salut,

Well, I have had some boring posts lately so I thought I would continue along the same lines.. here's some things I love, in absolutely random order.

• outdoors
• affagatos
• soul friends
• trees
• quality chocolate (quite happy to not have it if it's not the good stuff)
• the idea of snowboarding (haven't tried it yet)
• getting inspiration (rhema moments) from the word
• forests
• the giddy kind of excitement children get at the simplest of things
• cute teacups
• picnics
• rough (wave-wise) beaches
• honesty (eg, friends telling me I'm being an idiot when I am..)
• bushwalks/walks in tree-full places (ok, I know I have already said forests..)
• good photography
• walking with God (things aren't ranked ok?)
• thunderstorms
• cold weather for sleeping
• siberian huskies
• cellos.. they get my heart to float along with the notes
• laying on grass talking about nothing in part
• dates with God (special times when you get dressed up and go out, intent to spend some time with God)
• remembering funny times from my childhood with my stoopid brothers :) haha, when Don made that video clip of us to "I want to ride my bicycle" as we played on mum's frog-green exercise bike, hehee.. do you know where that tape is Donny?!
• living in God's presence
• star-watching
• crying, not being afraid to show emotion at the right times
• inspirational people
• candle-lit girls nights
• everlastings (paper daisy.. pink ones)
• a good read
• running in the rain
• sudoko
• green eyes (like that afghani girl from National Geographic years ago..)
• laughing
• really sharp knives
• guys with earthy, powerful voices
• old people (particularly sweet old ladies)
• dreddies (I don't know why, I just love them..)
• seeing God's power and love totally change someone's life
• The Wild Fig Cafe near.. hmm, batemans I think
• watching a guy's face as he sees his bride walking down the aisle to him at their wedding
• team sports
• knowing you're walking in the will of God.. ahh, peace! sweet peace!
• quality jazz music
• sitting in the sun with Mum in the front room while she takes 4 hours to read and re-read the paper on a sunday afternoon
• when I know I am understood and accepted no matter what
• children's picture books
• old cars
• the thought that I will speak French eventually!
• laughing with Lou as we try to think of as many US towns/cities/states beginning with M.. (how did that start Louey love? oh, I remember.. you and your friend that has a country as a name)
• wooden furniture - chunky, rustic kinda stuff. wooden floors. wooden houses. ok, I love wood stuff.
• bass (double-bass, guitar)
• getting Joyce Meyer's podcast.. woohoo
• being the President of Kate Reynold's fan club. what an honour..
• travelling home
• fine-point pens.. LOVE THEM!
• driving nowhere for the sake of it

Well that's all I can think of just for the minute. I know there's lots more, just can't drudge it up from the depths at the moment. There's so much to love about life. It'll flash by too fast unless you take time to appreciate the things around you. Even the things that seem so small.

Love you. I mean that.

Kel
