Things that feel richer than a 6 figure salary ➡️
(In no particular order)
☀️Sunsets.
The way a colourful sky can stop you in your tracks for a few minutes. I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of watching a blue sky turn into something so beautiful.
⏳Quality time with my husband & family
At the end of the day, they’re the reason behind so many of my goals. Nothing beats uninterrupted time together.
🌸Freshly bloomed wild flowers.
The tiny things that make you slow down for a second and smile.
🍎Good Health.
It’s so easy to take for granted until it’s something you have to fight for. Every time my bloodwork comes back looking good, it feels like a little gift I never want to stop appreciating.
☕️Catching up with friends over coffee or tea.
A couple of hours somehow disappear when the conversation is good.
💆♀️Making time to recover.
I’ve learned that rest isn’t wasted time. It helps me show up better in every other part of my life.
🍪Homemade baked goods.
Simple ingredients, fresh out of the oven, and that cozy feeling that makes the house feel even more like home.
🛏️A freshly made bed and a tidy home.
It’s amazing how much lighter my mind feels when my space feels calm too.
👩💻Time away from a screen.
Considering how much of my work happens behind one, stepping away always reminds me how much life is happening in front of me.
📷Getting to photograph joyful, in-love couples in beautiful places.
There are still moments where I stop and think, I can’t believe this gets to be my job.
📖Reading before bed with Spike curled up beside me.
The perfect way to slow down before drifting off to sleep.
🤗Exploring somewhere new.
Whether it’s close to home or halfway around the world, I love finding places that make me stop and take it all in.
🐚Finding little treasures.
Whether it’s a seashell or something unexpected, I love those moments when I slow down enough to discover the tiny things I would have walked right past if I was in a rush.
🏃🏼♀️➡️Being able to move my body.
Something I never think of as “little” anymore. If you’ve ever gone through a season where your body couldn’t do what you wanted it to, you know what a gift an ordinary walk can feel like.
The older I get, the the more I think a rich life has less to do with numbers and more to do with moments.
What’s one thing that makes you feel rich?
