    Ave all.

    I's hast started this thread to get more open discusions going.
    We have done this on other Forums that I's have been apart of and it has generally worked well.

    The simple purpose of this thread is for you to discuss the things in your life that make you happy, that you like and enjoy and brings joy to your very existence.
    IT can be something simple or grand but as long as it makes you happy, you can post it. Though within the Realms of Reason and Taste.
    If you wish to discuss a fetish or sexual pleasure, then please start another thread.

    Anyway, let I begin.

    What I's love:

    Standing on the shore as a storm rolls in across the waves.

    Feeling the sweet Winter chill as it caresses the nape of my's neck, beneath my's hair

    Being able to sit by an open fire and read an enchanting tale

    To be able to discuss life, love and philosophy with others

    To stand upon the Mountain and look out upon the Plains

    To Meditate and feel the very pulse of the Universe within I

    The quite and solice that only the Night can bring

    A pot of tea or a meal with friends

    And, of course:

    The very company of my's most Beloved wife and Daughter as we set out upon our great journey

    These are but a few of my's pleasures.

    What are your's?

    Peace

    Apart from the obvious (good TV, good music, good company, good literature, good food, etc.):

    Touching the leaves of trees as I go past

    Standing at a beach and watching the tide ebb and flow

    Walking in the rain, umbrella or no

    A gentle breeze on a hot day

    A baby's smile (no, I'm not like that! :oops:)

    Sitting on the couch with my girlfriend cuddling with her.

    Being able to have serious discussions about my friends when it comes to life and our future.

    Resting my arms against the window sill on a rainy day, to listen to the melody it sings.

    Spending time with my family even though it gets a little crazy sometimes with the silblings.

    Being able to sit down in the shower and listen to the water hitting the floor, almost like a quiet meditation.

    Watching movies with my family.

    Being inspired by music which causes me to write or create plans for the future.

    Looking outside the window when the sun is setting.

    Getting up early in the morning to see the sun rise and all the colors that fill the sky.

    Finally, being there for people who need me most when they are in a time of need.

    I'm sure I left out plenty of other activities, but I don't want to flood the whole forum with my list.

    Hmm…

    Playing with my friends in video games, while smashing them with my fighting game skills.

    Sleeping in on lazy days, just to wake up to the bright light in my eyes.

    Talking to my close online friends, while trying to make more.

    Sitting in indian styled seating on my bed, as if I was meditating.

    Listening to music and reading up on things, to inpire artwork.

    Acting the fool with my cousins who are practically my brothers and sisters. Cause I was supposed to be child 5, but 3 misscarrages and one death after birth…yeah.

    Getting the chance to speak to people I look up to on a daily basis*cough*here*cough*

    Theres more, but I cant think of them.

    Heh, most of my good things are more or less memories


    Imagining myself in some sort of imposible, imaginary world (Anime, Manga, Comics)
    -and-
    actually pretending to take on those enemies that I might face, practicing various types of martial arts and disciplines, and even inventing decapitating moves

    Having so much fun with an activity, games, whatever, that I'm considered by all around me to be "good" at it, no matter their skill level

    Knowing near everything about a subject of interest

    Going about something in such a way that it completely goes against the standard, but ends up better
    -or-
    Figuring out a way to do something unconventionally, yet incredibly effectively

    Making people laugh, smile, and hopefully feel better

    Dreaming

    Fiddling/playing with Beyblades and Yu-Gi-Oh! cards (I don't collect either anymore, but I love to dust off the blades, and I bought the YGO game for DS just because I felt like making a deck)

    Watching old series that bring back awesome memories

    Hearing that occassional song that really makes me feel excited (I'm not much of a music person, but once in a while a song will give me that "feeling" inside)


    Hearing about somebody's insane intellectual achievements
    (like for instance, the ancient chinese strategist Zhuge Liang/Kongming was awesome!)


    and lastly I suppose, thinking, or reading/being told something that makes me think

    a lot huh? maybe too much?

    Let's see, I'm sure I have lots…

    Spending time with friends I can just be me with, and it not mattering what we do

    Driving on motorways through British countryside

    Riding the bus for a long journey with just myself and an mp3 player

    Seeing such random beauty in the world wherever I look

    Welsh mountain scenery

    The feeling of waves against my back in the cold sea

    Soft grass and no shoes

    Being able to appreciate the culture and heritage of where I live and who I am

    Being able to make a drawing that makes me happy when it just feels so right

    Being able to lie in bed when it's mid day and knowing I don't have to get out

    Playing pretend (like kids when they imaginary play, like I do it in RP but I love to do it with kids too)

    Forests/woods when it's not too wet

    Overcast days (I'm not sure why)

    Climbing things like rocks and trees

    Going to castles/cathedrals/old buildings (eg Bodelwyddan, Chester cathedral)

    Knowing so much about so many things that I can usually argue my way out of anything

    Science and finding out new things about the world and what's in it

    Listening to a song that reminds me of someone or something or some period of time that I haven't thought about in so long

    Just sitting and looking at the world while thinking about anything for maybe hours

    There's probably more but I think that's enough
