Simple Treasures

Don't you wish you could giggle just because someone kissed your cheeks and made a silly noise?  Wouldn't our world be a happier place if we laughed genuinely at the sight of someone's goofy face in the mirror?  Perhaps we'd have no war and all live at peace with each other if we cracked up just because we moved our body up and down.

If only we never lost the satisfaction of simple accomplishments like blowing raspberries for the first time or held on to the wonder of reaching out to a puppy dog and trying to grab her nose while she kisses us.

We might even be better off if we continued to express our dissatisfaction with high pitched squeals and cranky faces rather than hateful, hurtful words.

These are the new treasures being found in my house right now.
