So I've recently learned about glimmers and I was almost overcome with how cute they are. In case you haven't heard of it, glimmers are when you find those tiny moments of joy in every day life. I've always enjoyed spotting the little things in life, but having a specific word to describe it makes it so much nicer! The last glimmer I enjoyed was was hearing a complete stranger play my favourite song in their car as I was also listening to the same song!
Are there any glimmers that you've enjoyed lately?

— untangling a necklace with a needle for someone
(my dad used to do this for me when I was younger, felt like such a delicate ritual)
— sitting on a couch with someone (aka your current crush) and both caressing a cat that’s between you and the other person
…a silent „we’re both here, coexisting, vibing„ moment
— braiding someone’s hair
(the gentle tug, the trust, the rhythm)
— tuning a violin or a guitar
(recently watched my friend do this and she was so intimate with her instrument, fine-tuning every string, taking her time… it was kinda mesmerizing)
— asking someone about their perfume
(I noticed you, I want to remember how you smell)
— people in busy public places that close their eyes and hold still for a moment just to soak in some precious sunrays
Loved this question!
