As my life has been greatly simplified over the last couple of months, I have come to enjoy and appreciate some of the small things around me that bring a smile to my face. My mind is no longer filled with a never ending to do list, the next unit of study, and that one student who I just can’t figure out, so it’s not that these things are new to me, I am just able to see the value in them with a clear mind. Here is my list for today: holding the hand of the one I love, walking on the beach, seeing a sunset paint the sky pink and orange, feeling my daughter kick and move which almost always brings a smile to my face (the only time it doesn’t is when I am trying to sleep), stopping to admire one of God’s creations, getting a text message from a friend just because she was thinking about me, and eating popcorn at the movies. Hope you were able to stop and enjoy some of the simpler things that happened in your life today too.
