Life is a bunch of moments. Little moments. Moments that take our breath away, make us cry, or make us laugh. It's the stressful moments that make us want to run and hide. It's the breathtaking moments that show us how amazing friends and family are. It's the moments that make us lose faith, and moments that give it back. It's a lot of moments that you can't even describe. But at the end of the day, those moments make up our life, and we need to be more thankful for those moments. Some people don't get those kinds of moments. Some lose their lives fighting battles for someone else and lose the moments with family and friends. There are children fighting for their lives in hospital beds losing the moments to be a child.
So often we take for granted the moments in our lives. Instead we focus on the negative. All the things going wrong. All the stressful moments. We are so consumed by all the negative things that we so rarely miss out on the little moments that are so amazing.
Like watching my daughters play peacefully in their bedrooms
Like looking through pictures I've taken of friends and family, and sharing the memories.
Like watching a sunset over the lake, or over the city.
Like finding something new and exciting to do with friends and family.
Like trying a new food, and falling in love with it.
Like cuddling with my girlies while we watch a childrens movie from when I was a little girl.
Like dancing in the rain, just because.
Like taking a nap.
Little moments that mean the world to you while they are going on. But as soon as something stressful happens (even if it's something small) those happy good little moments are so easily forgotten.
I've started a project. Might keep doing it on here. It would keep me writing. It's to write something I'm thankful for every single day. And trying not to repeat the things I'm thankful for. So it's getting hard sometimes to find something to be happy or thankful for. But so far, I've managed to do it. At least, I think I have. And honestly, if it's the same thing I'm thankful for from another day, as long as I'm thankful does it really matter? lol. So yeah. It makes it a little easier to see the good in life.
We will see what happens. But for right now, I'm gonna go enjoy myself a little Ice cream, and watch some more TV. ;) Might even get myself a nap, lol. LATERS
