• The feel of a newborn baby’s skin
  • The smell of a newborn baby
  • The smell of freshly cut grass (TRUE SMELL)
  • The giggling cackle of an infants laugh
  • The smell of pavement after a warm summer rain
  • The feel of a nice hot shower after being out in the cold
  • The feeling of a warm summer rain
  • The sound a foot step makes after the first freshly fallen snow
  • The silence heard after a freshly fallen snow
  • The peaceful void of sound in the wilderness
  • The purring of a kitten on your lap
  • The feeling of fresh bed linens after hanging on the line outside
  • The feeling of flannel sheets in the dead of winter
  • The warm embrace of my wife’s arms around me during her hug

These are a couple of moments, and experiences in my life I wish I could ‘bottle up’. So I could relive and repeat the moment as needed. A sort-of PRN self delivered relief, for when you need it the most.

I think it’s Murphy’s Law..every once in a while things will pile up on the ‘To-Do’ list, or life’s roller coaster will run ya’ ragged, and maybe you just need that lil ’spark’ to help you get through a tough moment.

Any of the above mentioned moments could and would get me over that ‘hump’.

I can say, some aroma-like products have attempted to reproduce some of the smells, but could you imagine if we could reproduce the feelings??!!

Whew.

I’d be one wealthy individual if I could create a product that reproduced and of the above experiences.

Until then, I will call upon my memories to help me through those tough times.

Aahh..

Dare to dream.

Carpe Diem

    Hey, I was wondering if it'd be ok that I add you to my links list?
  • @ Karin RN Great Ideas, and yes, I've done them all! Thanks for the reminder! :)
  • Or you can just write about it, take a picture of it, or draw it so that you can remind yourself later, you've once had that experience.
