[Siúil a Rúin]

Sunshine on my skin
Sleeping well in really soft blankets
Music that resonates with me
Playing my instrument with focus on expression.
Dancing gracefully and learning a new move I didn't think I could do.
Playing and communicating funny sounds with my cats we both understand somehow.
Singing the songs I've written
Walking in the woods, by a lake, up a rocky area.
See the sky change colors
Being hugged and loved
Putting together beautiful dance costumes
Writing a poem that distills the truth
Talking to authentic, honest people
Feeling hope for the future
Knowing people I love are safe
