While "too much of a good thing can be wonderful" (Mae West), I've learned that any sort of bingeing isn't such a great idea for me. Small treats or pleasures keep me in a content state. A key is paying attention to recognize and appreciate life's continuous flow of "small treats":
- Sunshine
- Rain
- Flowers blooming in my garden
- Barney's belly-up ecstasy over a belly rub
- Hugs
- Breath
- Writing
- Healthy meals
- Comfortable bed
- Good night's sleep
- Reading
- Trying something new
- Travel
- Prayer
- Baseball
- Walking in my neighborhood
- Talking with a friend
- Being heard
- Playing golf
- Swimming
- Massage
- Pedicure
- Naps
- And many more...
These are all "small treats" in my fairly regular life. Seeing them as treats makes for a much happier life.
