A german word which to my knowing, is non-existant in other languages...an undescribeable state related to a feeling of peace, pleasure and contentment. Here a shot at trying to concretize it:
1. Cuddling on a couch with your loved one, keeping your toes under a plaid blanket to keep warm, and watching a once-10-years-ago-box office...the popcorn box likely to fall over the edge of the couch each time you lean against him/her
2. Coming home soaken wet after a soccer game during heavy rain,...taking off those heavy wet shoes, sitting on the carpet sipping a large mug of hot chocolate
3. Delving into a great book, in the corner of a train cabin.... a family with little children sitting next and opposite of you...crying and giggling at times... it doesn't disturb you at all, because whatever you're reading is so enthralling
4. During holiday season, go to the mall with your best friend... walking from store to store.... it may be one shopping bag or none you're carrying at the end of the day...but it doesn't matter because it is so 'gemuetlich' being with that friend and sharing stories
5. Chatting for 3 hours. Having your mum beside you watching tv, also chatting with you apparently.... it requires double-focus... but still, it is such a nice feeling...
