Little Things

Even though we hear it over and over again we really don't feel it until we experience it. It's the little things that make me happy....

Last night I left work not feeling well, my neck was tense and I couldn't really move my arms. I decided that laying down a lot would be the appropriate thing to do. Just as I put my head on the pillow it started storming out. I realize this may sound odd but I actually enjoy those heavy rain storms because I like the way the water splashes on the ground. After the storm was over, and I felt a little better, I got up from the couch and stood by the big window looking at the sky. For the first time in a long time I could see the stars shining brightly in the sky above me. And not a plane in sight. It was beautiful.

Today I had one of the most pleasant bus experiences in Queens ever. While lending support to a friend is important manuvering your way there can make or break the deal. I was pleasantly suprised at the way the bus system worked today, no more than 10 minute wait. I also had one of the most pleasant walks trying to get to the bus. I like it when the weather is colder because I can walk for a long time and feel the wind in my face while I sing to myself in my head. Anyway, this will be and has been a quiet weekend. I prefer it that way too. These are the things that make me happy.
