“Always The Side-Character, Never The Protagonist”

I am so easy to please.

Pastel sunrises, vibrant sunsets

Shooting stars, and fairy lights

The first fallen leaf of autumn

The first green shoots of spring

Blue sky, thunderstorms,

Fireworks, and sparklers

The smell of the ocean

The smell of freshly made coffee

The smell of freshly cut grass

Random acts of thoughtfulness

Unexpected compliments

Cooking for people I care about

Someone else initiating a hug

Genuine concern and interest

Laughter, company, and affection

When someone texts me first:

“How are you?”

“I saw this and thought of you!”

“Do you want to get coffee?”

“Happy new year!”

I am so easy to please

It hurts me that hardly anyone tries.
