sunshine!!!!

it always is the little things that count and make life special, isn't it? and that's the reason we look forward to special days, no matter how significant or insignificant they may be. bad days become good, unlucky numbers become the luckiest ever..there somehow just is reason to celebrate. it's a funny thing how gifts don't matter, but little notes and messages do. it's amazing how telling someone you love them makes you feel so much better when you're down and also gets you to count your blessings and realize how lucky you are to have those people you love and who love you. it's a good feeling to be missed, to know that someone cares and it feels even nicer when they tell you so. it feels amazing to share wonderful relationships. they more than make up for all the little disappointments that are a part of life. little things, big smiles.

i'm in the mood to count my blessings for i feel like the luckiest person to be alive and where i am. Here and Now. and when i think about what makes me feel that way, i realize, it is these little things. and it always will be these little things. someone to hold on to in your happiest moments. a shoulder to cry on when you're down. someone you can be totally and completely yourself with, without any fear of being judged. telling someone you love them, and meaning it. missing your mum n dad when your miles away and realizing how tough it must've been for them to bring you up. being able to talk to mom about anything. going to bed with the thought that no matter what happens, you know, at the end of the day there is always someone you can count on. standing at the window, looking at the birds fly over the water as you listen to music. having conversation or just sitting beside someone who you really love. being able to breathe, walk, talk and be! so many little things we take for granted not realizing that life just wouldn't be life sans all of these things.

it's essential for all of us to look within sometimes and find these little things that keep us going, that keep us happy and to keep reminding ourselves that the more people we spread that happiness to, the more sunshine we're going to bring into our own lives. it's important to look into the sunshine all the time (doesn't matter if you need glares...wear them and keep looking!) so that we never find the shadows. what's most important though is to give the people you love those little things that keep you going, for they may not be able to tell you how happy those things make them, but you will be spreading the sunshine....and in life, after all, it is these little things that make all the difference!
