*{Here are just a few of my favorite things in life that make me smile and go YIPPEE!!!}*
LOVE, traveling, hiking, music, festivals, DANCING, yoga, being naked, meditation, natural health, herbal medicine, nutrition, cooking (and "non" cooking), making jewelry, sewing, ART (in all its many forms), reading, writing, poetry, kissing, laughing, berbers, cuddling, good friends who are dogs, knitting, getting drunk and playing guitar or just playing guitar in general, minus being drunk although that sometimes makes it more fun:-), MATTY, gazing at beautiful clouds in a magnificent sky, wine, dreaming, mountains, beaches, fresh fruits & veggies, crystals, getting shwilly and rowdy, water, the aroma of garlic and onions sauteing, sunshine, wondering, wandering, pondering, creation, imagination, inspiration, experiementation, exploration, the peaceful quiet of mornings, that moment of deep relaxation when everything seems to melt away except you and your breath and this feeling of deep connection with nature, truth and divine love, when leaves on trees turn from green to vibrant shades of red, orange and yellow, when I can strongly feel my mom's presence, surrendering, listening, learning, simplicity...
