It is very interesting that the first song that came to mind was from the Sound of Music, My Favorite Things. I use to sing this song to my Goddaughter and my niece for no apparent reason. I don’t know why this song I guess because I know the lyrics and it is important for me especially now to know that I know something plus I love so many of these things, these no one can take away from me.

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 sleigh bells

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 winters that melt into springs

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
