I have found that some of the simplest things have given me the most
pleasure. They didn’t cost me a lot of money either. They just
worked on my senses. Did you ever pick very large blueberries after a
summer rain Walk through a grove of cottonwoods, open like a park, and
see the blue sky beyond the shimmering gold of the leaves? Pull on dry
woolen socks after you’ve peeled off the wet ones? Come in out of
the subzero and shiver yourself warm in front of a wood fire? The
world is full of such things.” — Dick Proenneke Just the simple
things that give me pleasure.
