Treasures 2006_12


What we remember from childhood we remember forever —
permanent ghosts, stamped, inked, imprinted, eternally seen.


— Cynthia Ozick


Treasures are positive things that strike my fancy, that make me feel happy or thankful or interested. Treasures are memories encapsulated in just a few words.
These are my Treasures for the past week.

  • Two mule deer near the walking trail

  • Bright orange California poppies, soaking up sunshine

  • Electric door locks (especially when I'm hurrying to the car in the rain!)

  • Coming home to my warm, sleepy kitties on a chilly wet day

  • Waking from my nap, starting to get up… then Squirrel arrived and snuggled in and we went back to sleep for a bit.

  • Meeting a Pomeranian – a cute, friendly doggy nestled in her hooman's shirt

  • Falling asleep listening to the rain

  • Bagels & lox

  • A phone screen for a possible job
