Have you ever noticed that doing mundane tasks such as cleaning or running errands are far more enjoyable whenever you have the love of your life with you? I have. My fiancee Shawn and I have had a typical day off together. Cleaning, grabbing some coffee, running errands etc. However, the simple joy of seeing him smile, or running my fingers through his long, dirty blond hair, or even just holding his hand are the joys that keep me alive. They keep my breathing.
Do you have someone in your life who you can experience these simple joys with? I hope you do. Love is something I hope everyone can experience. It is the most vital necessity for existence.

The simplest joys we have in life are usually found to be the most rewarding ones we will have. Having a special someone to share those joys with make the moments even more to treasure. simple joys can be endured alone, but companionship is certainly a welcome advantage.

I completely agree with you. Doing stuff like what you've mentioned are far better done when you know you have someone by your side to no matter how fast or slow you go with life whether it be housework or making big decisions along the way. I also love the feeling when my partner compliments me for a job well done.

yes, doing chores with my husband gives me simple joy too. Specially, when he would ask if i am tired already and that he will take over to what i am doing.
Simple things or tasks shared with your loved ones really touches the heart and creates not only simple joy but BIG JOY! It's because love is in the air!

Totally. We live to love. When you have your happiness with you, even doing weird things is fun.
At some point, no matter how you love each other, you will have to argue about something. But even having to fight over things tends to be fun. I have been in this kind of an odd situation. I'm not sure but we just can't agree on everything then we get mad at each other but after a few moments of arguing, we laugh about it. It is weird but sweet.

Yes most definitely. Doing those usually boring everyday tasks with my girlfriend makes them so much funner. I usually dread them most of the time. But hen i know im going to b with her i usually even look forward to doing them. Because I know im going to spend time with her :)

Yes indeed... i think you are so happy that you feel like floating in the air for that, well, i guess thats how love works... Imagine if people have that love then it would be a wonderful world to live in, people where optimistic, there would be no fighting at all, because if there is love there is no hatred..
