My Favorite Things

There's been too many depressing posts lately; and I do not like the negativity itself.

All of a sudden, I am reminded by this song which I used to love from my all-time favorite musical, The Sound of Music.

It is sung by Julie Andrews (The Golden Voice of the Century); who sang My Favorite Things.
She said to the children, "When I feel sad, I think of My Favorite Things"

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things

Cream colored ponies and crisp apple strudels
Doorbells and sleighbells
And schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favorite things

Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Silver white winter that melts into spring
These are a few of my favorite things

When the dog bites
When the bee stings
When I'm feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feel...so bad



So, I should also try to remember my favorite things, to cheer myself up....
