{thirty days of thanks} five senses

i'm randomly reminded at times what a blessing it is that i have use of all five of my senses - as much as i {unintentionally} take them for granted, i simply can't imagine life without them.

sight

i'm so thankful for the ability to observe my world. take pictures. design for a living. go to the movies. find inspiration in a sunrise.

sound

i'm thankful for the sound of ocean waves crashing to the shore. the voices of my husband, my friends, my family. for music. forest noises. for romance languages and charming accents.

taste

i'm thankful for my morning coffee and my afternoon tea. street food and fresh farmer's market produce. flavors and palettes in other cities and foreign countries. pumpkin-flavored everything. cheese.

smell

i'm thankful for the smell of freshly cut grass. coffee {again}. campfires and christmas cookies. my husband. and the magical way that scent can instantly transport you to another time and place.
touch
i'm thankful for sand in my toes and for cool dewy grass in the early morning. warm purring cats on my lap. chunky handmade scarves and hats. massages. bear hugs.
