Simple Guilty Pleasures

This past weekend was one of the best Sunday's I have had in a really long time. It started with brunch and mimosas with 2 great girlfriends in the city. After some bubbly we somehow stumbled upon the topic of what your favorites are in life (not naming people, relationships or places). We were on a roll so we took the topic of conversation to the local coffee shop where we continued jotting our thoughts down. 
In no particular order here are the top 25 for the day (as we decided since they are spur of the moment favorites we can change them daily if we want....just because we can) 

I actually find it my personal form of meditation as I have never been one that can sit still and focus without having my brain go a million miles.  Meditating is supposed to ground you and find what basics in life are really of value to you and get you more focused on the positve.  I have been reading the book “Eat Pray Love” and I am on the secition where the main characer goes to India to meet the Ashram and voage on to find her true self and meditate with the locals. The sad thing is I can’t even focus on the chapters where someone else meditates.

Thus, I have found this Sunday as my form of meditation that brought me back to planet earth with out thinking about a care in the world. I felt like I was in another place and having an outer body experience while enjoying myself and finding what makes me happy in life not even once pondering on the stresses and that cause me so much angst and discomfort with life.

I highly suggest this as it really helps bring you back to “you” when you are having a rough day or week.
