Little Things That Aren’t Little
Savor every moment that you get.
Asking how someone’s day was when they know the sidewalk rule specific compliments, a smile from a stranger, asking you questions when you’re talking, nicknames, being in the sun, walking in a group and someone waiting for you to catch up, facetiming till 1am, ”checking in on you”, being comfortable in silence with each other.
Sometimes I don’t realize how blessed l am. I forget how I used to pray for everything I have now and even more. 10 years ago I would tell myself I’m excited for the future because I wanted to see who I’ve become and here I am. Everything I prayed to be, and even better.
Don’t waste a single moment worrying about things you can’t change or dwelling on past mistakes. Instead, focus on making the present moment count and work towards creating a brighter future. Remember, time waits for no one, so make every second count towards reaching your goals and living a fulfilling life. The best portion of your life will be the small, nameless moments you spend smiling with someone who matters to you.
I don’t fantasize about having the perfect life. I just think about waking up somewhere safe. I think about having a pretty kitchen and a nice green armchair. Books on shelves. Coffee always brewing. I could be happy with something simple and quiet.
