Life is all about the simple things....
Have you ever had a day where your mind is totally preoccupied by one thought, a good thought, or I guess it could be a bad one? But, for me, I'll focus on good. This thought could be something as simple as an IM from someone that you haven't heard from for a long time, or something along the lines of a person that you barely know remembering something that you told them last week about yourself, and asking you how it is going. I mean, does the person who does this to you know that it is going to change the entire course of events for your day? Probably not. It sometimes amazes me how things done with the littlest amount of thought can have the largest effect on the a person's life. I mean, the whole day I was practically floating because of this one tiny little thing that I bet the person who did it had no idea that it would have this profound of an effect. So, I guess the point of this entry was to think about what you do; you never know how it could change someone's life. I mean, obviously, the thing that kept me on cloud nine all day isn't going to stay with me forever, but it changed what was looking to be a rather bad day full of worrying about next semester and advising, into something that was remotely pleasant.
Which brings me to my next thought: Life truly is all about the simple things for me. Today was such a gorgeous day outside, and as I was walking outside by the lake, I looked at the trees changing colors, and was absolutely humbled. I don't mean to get all cheesy, but it is true, I looked at the world around me, and thought, "Wow," then I almost got run over by a biker, but you know, for that one moment, it was crazy. I think that I've come to the realization that even if I tried, I could not be a high maintenance girl, and that is OK; for me, life is about fresh air, nature around me, and being with the people that I love (figuratively, or literally). Oh, and maybe some good music playing in the background...
So, that is my entry for today. It's a product of procrastination...ugh Sociology midterm tomorrow...but, I have confidence that things will be OK, I mean, how hard is sociology to BS?... ha ha
Love, Love, Love,
