I get immense pleasure from colours in nature eg clouds, sunsets, certain flowers, reflections in water, the motion of the sea. I can also stare at stars for hours on end, which links in with being fascinated and calmed by shiny sparkly things, such as christmas tree lights, snow globes etc. I can get wonderfully lost with these things. Music is also an enormous part of my life that I have to have. I'm not sure how to describe why I love it so much.


Yeah nature can be calming to most and the only things I can see in your post that NTs get calmed by are sunsets, flowers, the sea, stars and, (soft), music. The others are probably neurodiverse/autistic things. I just have to say that I sorta collect snowglobes! I'm not just saying that, I must have about 10 or 20, every time there's a holiday in the family - I get a snowglobe! I too really like music, most of the time when I'm on the road (not driving), I just have to have my stereo on!

GTG now.

Sorry for the multiple repeat, I was in a rush and the page was slow-loading so I just kept hitting submit to keep refreshing the page, sort of a "try again browser", thing. I don't mind at all if the first 3 are deleted, the one I want to keep is the very last one. The site is not giving me the option to delete them myself or I would do so.
