Someone coming into the store for the first time, looking around, then audibly exclaiming “Oh my God! I’ve been looking for one of these for years!” and then actually buying said one of those.
Saying “You know what?” To my daughter Miri, and having her reply “You love me?”

Sun Dragon Koi #3Feeling Katie Boo (my oldest cat) curl up against my back at night, or curl up on my feet, or against by stomach. Hearing her purr. (Although right now it makes me sad too. She’s lost so much weight recently, and after the trauma of her surgery earlier this year, I don’t think she’s long for this world.)
My sympathies. I know what it’s like to treasure every moment because you think there aren’t many left. *hugs*

My favorite nonmaterial thing?
Are you going to laugh at me? 😳
Because it’s about my favorite physical sensation: SLEEP AND DREAMS. Yup! Paradoxal sleep. Subconscious making me live so curious, sometimes ridiculous adventures…
A dream that I make often at night is that I go back to school, whatever it’s college, high school or university. There, instead of following my lessons seriously, I suddenly stop studying, attending the courses and let my grades go down. Like this. With no regrets at all. Crazy, huh?
Or, sometimes, I dream I’m under water, but I’m still breathing. Not a poetic adventure, though; I fell in water accidentally, or someone else pushed me there. I can’t get on the surface, but I still can breathe. Silly, isn’t it?
So, Paradoxal Sleep in the natural phenomenon that fascinates me the most. Plus, it’s a sensation I just can’t live without… 😯 I can’t help it, it’s just so fascinating to try to analyse those oniric happenings no one can anticipate. Everyone has them, but no one can explain them.
After a good sleep full of dreams, not only my curiosity is excited, but also, I feel my mind completely cleaned up. Just like a messy room that that has been all tighten up. See what I mean?
