A friendly reminder for everyone out there

Its time to start experiencing more of life's simple pleasures. The type of activities that aren't the most exciting, but are always the most rewarding. Those brief escapes from reality that seem to just wash the whole world away and revitalize the soul. I'm talking about those evening drives down the coast, windows down, listing to some light jazz, unable to stop admiring that incredible cotton candy sky above you. I'm trying to remind you of those beautiful Sunday mornings, lounging outside, reading that book you've been obsessed with while you sip on some ice cold lemonade. I'm simply asking you to think about those late nights at the speakeasy, nursing your favorite whisky while you chop it up with your oldest friend. Whatever that ritual is for you, remember to make time for these moments. Life really never makes too much sense, but simple pleasure will always remain simple.

Too true. Have some great memories of watching the sunrise in Afghanistan with some friends, drinking coffee. Life is all about enjoying the simple pleasures. Make sure you make time for them. Life is short.
