I just love the simple things in life...

Waking up in the morning and seeing that blue sky so blue, all those cotton-white clouds, the shining sun, feeling the wind on your face, that chill on an autumn morning...
Having chocolate milk in your favorite mug while reading the newspaper...
Driving by the neighborhood and realizing people move in and move out, houses are bought and sold, are remodeled and renewed, kids you grew up with now are grown up and starting their own family.
Watching the city moving... sometimes faster and other times really slow... how people walk through their everyday lives...

I just love when unexpected things happen.
When you bump into that old friend from high school, your English teacher, when a dear friend tells you she's preagnant... when feelings show...
I don't need much in life to make me smile, to make me feel happy. You can send me an e-mail with a single line and I'll just open a big smile because I know I was remembered.
In this crazy life, we forget those little things. We forget people. We forget to feel. To love. We want big, but we don't even do small.
Think big, want big, do big... but start small, be small, want small... be simple. be true.

While I write, I think, wonder and ponder... I need to do more of the simple things in life, to want the simple things, to just send an e-mail with a single line, to send a text, to make a phone call... and suddenly, all those simple things will add up to a greater thing called love... happiness... joy...

I'd rather make people smile every day than to be rude to them. I'd rather smile every day because there's just something about smiles. It makes you feel better, it makes other peoples feel better and it costs nothing!

Our lives and minds are way too crowed with feelings, emotions, worries, and all that... we should empty them for a while and remind ourselves of where we come from, how we got here, how much in life we are missing... just simple things.
