Sometimes the world can seem so glum and dreary and we forget the small or even the big things that give us a reason to see the positive side of life.
Today, I wanted to just go on a ramble about the little things that make me happy. It's so easy to say things like my significant other, my family, my pets. They're my obvious, and justly so! Today... feels like a day for the little things, so here we go!
- Plants, thanks to a my newish friend and coworker, Graci, who I feel like I've been friends with for literal years, plants have become my thing. Watching for new growth and getting excited when plants are in their happy zones. Here are some of my favorite little ones!
- My new bike. I haven't had a chance to actually ride it yet due to needing to balance a wheel so that it stops hitting the fenders but I'm so excited to get it fixed now that shops are open. Ready to get my bike on!
- My engagement ring. I'm not materialistic. I swear on everything I could be transplanted somewhere else with my loved ones and critters, I wouldn't miss anything I own... except this ring. This beautiful ring that symbolizes Josh's promise to love me forever, to choose me daily, to be mine.
- The smell of the Earth after a strong rainstorm, usually accompanied with a beautiful sky
- Sunday mornings. Since Corona swept the state and we've been ordered to stay home, Sundays have truly become our day of rest. It's my day to do what I want without anyone breathing down my neck.
- The Jonas Brothers. I know, I know... not really a small thing that makes me happy but, everytime they release a new song or video, I'm THE happiest camper.
- Foot rubs. Back rubs. Scalp rubs. Forehead rubs. I love you, Josh. Keep going... love you!
There's so much good all around us that brings out a happy moment, all over the place and at all times. Just take some time to see the small things that make a big impact on your happiness.
