Life is about all the little things that make us happy! Like the fact that (yes, I know I'm a dork) I have 4 "plain" coffee mugs I use for Monday-Thursday morning coffee. But on Friday I have a special Disney mug that I use - because it's Friday. So this morning, when I reached into the cupboard to find that after this morning, I'll only have one more plan mug to use and then it's Friday!!! This was so exciting to me! I love little reminders that the week is coming to an end and I get my lovely weekend!
This is a just an example of how really little things in life can make a big difference just by choosing to look at them in the right way. You may think I'm silly, and I know I am, but small things like this happen all around us all the time. It is important to find the happiness in them and cherish those brief moments of bliss!
