So, how was everyone's day? My day was filled with awesomeness and my night has been just as awesome, and it's about to get better! I had a fantabulous morning with my Johnny Angel, I had an absolutely marvelous day at work, I get to spend an evening just chilling with my Matty and we just found out our super awesome home skillets booked their flights and are coming to visit us for Halloween... I'M SO EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So, yeah, you could say it's been an over-the-top happy day for me ;)
I love that it's the little things that make my day so wonderful. And it's always the little things that I look back on and remember. Like the hugs my Johnny gives me whenever I have to leave for work, or the "Hi, I love you" text messages I get from my Matty during the day, or the out-of-the-blue phone calls I get from friends, or the smile and hello when I pass by a stranger, or the rainstorms that lull me to sleep, or even the simplest gesture from a stranger - like when I was trying to put my new windshield wipers on and some gentleman asked if I would like assistance because the old one just wouldn't come off! Sure, some of these little moments might happen on a daily basis, but some of them do not - yet I remember them all so vividly! Why? Because they make me happy - and they make me who I am today!!!
So many people look past all the little moments in life. They are too busy trying to make a dollar that they miss the most important part of life. Yes... I understand we need money to survive. However, let me ask you this, if you were not given another day of life, will you be taking that money with you when you go to your final resting place (a.k.a. Heaven)? No it won't! What about all your possessions? That's a big N-O as well. The only thing going with you is your mind and soul... which contains only the memories of your life and the love in your heart! And guess what, those are the most expensive gifts you will ever own, so cherish them! I don't care how much money you might have, it will never make you happy! I promise you this... I have had the opportunity to experience life in multiple ways (with money, without money, with some money but not much and even OMG WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO?!?!?!) and in every scenario I've always been happy. Even when we're fighting to figure out a way to make ends meet - I stay happy! How do I stay happy? Because I am richer beyond my capacity... All the little moments that I have been and am continued to be blessed with in my life make my life so amazingly awesome! (Yes, I do enjoy using the word awesome tonight...)
As I'm sure you have been able to figure out, today's Happy is all about focusing on the little things in life. And to help fully illustrate my point, I found a few images on Google that will assist in today's Happy:
Now, after those awesome reminders, isn't life just so amazing?!?! I hope you all remember these words of wisdom from now on - I guarantee life is going to be so much better for you from here on out!!! But, I'm off to watch a movie with my Matty so until tomorrow, keep smiling and spreading that love!!
Peace, Love and Happiness!
Karen :)
