I sometimes don’t discuss things I’ve enjoyed, like movies or books or gardening, with others. At least not immediately.
Because I don’t want to analyze those joys. I don’t want to debate whether or not I should enjoy them. I don’t want to hear all the reasons the other person didn’t like those things.
I want to simply enjoy them. I want to turn off my brain a bit and feel.
It is okay. No, it is more than okay. It is GOOD to simply enjoy things.
To look at a sunset and not worry about the storm brewing miles away. To smell a flower and not think about whether or not they are native to our areas. To read a great romance novel and not ponder if it is advancing the genre.
Simply enjoy some things, my friends.
Allow yourself that happiness.
