Stepping on perfectly clean ice and cutting the first grooves with your skates
Skating in an empty arena by yourself
Hitting that perfect drive where you hear that clean sound of the ball coming off of the club. Same with hitting the ball with a bat.
That moment of absolute quiet that happens just before a big moment in sports
The smell of coffee brewing
That first sip of beer after working outside on a hot hot day
The feel of a woman's hip swaying in time to music
That moment when you totally get the water temperature perfect while taking a shower
Waking up 15 minutes before the alarm rings and just enjoying the moment
Standing outside just after the sun goes down and seeing the stars appear like a god flicking light switches
The sound a fire makes when it explodes a knot of wood
(Some people will get this) the first smoke of the day (after that its downhill)
Seeing somebody doing something well that you've taught or coached.
The two minutes after good sex where its just hearing heartbeats
The opening chord to your favorite song
A good choir singing an uplifting song
That few minutes when your on a long road trip with friends and you just stare out the window and see the world passing by and you know that you're in good company and on your way to the next great adventure.
The smell of fresh bread baking
The opening paragraph of a book that instantly draws you into the story.
(It was a dark and stormy night)

I don't know if this is simple or not, maybe slightly cheating.. but the sunrise over the mountains this morning. Just waking up and seeing that light purple/pink hue over the Rockies as you wake up and just standing there looking at it until it goes away.
putting on wool socks right after trimming your toenails
making someone else laugh REALLY hard
that little blue bolt of electricity when a C-Train passes a wet/exposed bit of line
hearing your watch ticking
building a model and having time stand still
the burn from a good Scotch
