As yoga class was ending today my instructor reminded us to remember that love isn't about feeling perfect all the time or grand gestures, it's about the little things that make us happy to wake up in the morning.
My drops of Love...
- A cranberry muffin
- An endearing "goodnight" text message from someone I love
- A letter from my mother
- Purchasing a new book
- Mastering a new conjugation in French
- Trader Joe's Tea Lemonde
- Late nights that don't invlove a lot of work, but plenty of chatting
- The sun shining
- A perfect apple
- Hearing from someone I miss terribly
- An afternoon of pretending to be 7 years old again
These are the things that make me love my life, not a new car or an extravagant vacation (although those are always welcome). For me, being happy is about enjoying the little things.
