April 2016 was when my life changed. Successful heart surgery, recovery, oodles of love, care and the gift of life. Here is my JOY list
- Discovering toadstools /mushrooms on my daily walks
- Embracing the colours of life
- Listening to bird song every day
- Rejoicing friends
- Coffee, conversation and more coffee and conversation
- Mr T my beautiful moggie, who during my time of recovery held vigil for me, my constant companion – a sentinel for my health
- Ice cubes drowned in fizzy water with a slice of lime – delicious
- Anzac biscuits
- A song which ignites long forgotten memories,stirring up emotions. Volume increased allowing the melody and lyrics to fill every gap and space in my mind
- The smell of freshly cut grass and the cacophony of cicada song on a summer’s day
