Tuesday, June 29
I spent a lot of time over the weekend talking to Ed, trying to help find ways out of his depression. I suggested he made a list of all the things which made him happy or glad to be alive, read it regularly and to try and indulge in them. So I've made my own list:
- sunrises and sunsets
- bagels
- hummus and roast veg sandwiches
- walking barefoot on grass
- walking barefoot on sand
- playing on the swings
- thunderstorms
- receiving letters in the post
- hugs
- long candlelit baths with bubble bath
- a friend smiling
- being able to make a friend smile
- Fevers and Mirrors
- long phone conversations until 2 am
- glow in the dark stars
- going for walks at midnight
- sleeping in clean bedsheets
- Maya Gold and its Cherry counterpart
- spacehoppers
- Careless Talk Costs Lives
- The Art of Looking Sideways
- exciting underwear
- corsets
- glitter (in any form)
- kittens
- hodgehegs
- fields full of flowers
- willow trees
- freshly baked bread
No doubt the list will be added to repeatedly at later dates.
