My mama and Hebrew refrigerator magnets (Taken with instagram)
Other positive experiences:
1. Spending more quality time with my cat
2. Writing again
3. Arizona tomorrow
4. Catching up on tv shows I should have watched 3 years ago
First nice day in a couple of weeks, day off, choosing to spend all of it like this.
Saudade
Portuguese – One of the most beautiful of all words, translatable or not, this word “refers to the feeling of longing for something or someone that you love and which is lost.” Fado music, a type of mournful singing, relates to saudade.
Ilunga
Tshiluba (Southwest Congo) – A word famous for its untranslatability, most professional translators pinpoint it as the stature of a person “who is ready to forgive and forget any first abuse, tolerate it the second time, but never forgive nor tolerate on the third offense.”
Schadenfreude
German – Quite famous for its meaning that somehow other languages neglected to recognize, this refers to the feeling of pleasure derived by seeing another’s misfortune.
