The sun sets on another day…
Another day filled with sunshine somewhere. The sky is closed in as darkness came but there was light everywhere shining a path to tomorrow.
I’ve said it before many times, you have to enjoy the little things. There is a book that notes that we shouldn’t sweat the petty things but we also shouldn’t ignore the petty positives. Sometimes we are given little bits and slices of a fantastic moment and in the process we may find that the world is a better place because of those little pretty petty positives.
Don’t feel bad for enjoying something that you like even if it’s something small.
I have a friend who used to struggle with weight. Many years ago we would all go out to eat often and we had no choice because as part of our job we had to travel constantly. My friend loves sweets and at the end of each meal she would order dessert and get something absolutely amazing. She would then take one bite and push the rest in front of the rest of us.
She didn’t miss out on the flavor she just missed out on the ravenous pack of dogs that she released her dessert to as we devoured it after her single bite. I look back on that today saying that perhaps that is a secret to all that is.
With that in mind, find something that is amazing to you and when you do enjoy it. You don’t have to have too much to enjoy it. You don’t have to have it all to enjoy it. You just have to enjoy it and when you do maybe your day will be a little better.
So as the sun sets on another day, I hope you find little things to enjoy today and I hope that each moment gives you the joy that you both need and deserve. In the end our life is about all the little things and often the things we think are most important won’t really mean that much. Find your way and enjoy it, no matter what.
Sleep sweet, love life, and enjoy the ride…
