What kind of life would you have if you spent all your time worrying, working, crying, pushing yourself, stressing, depressed, alone, hungry, dirty, wanting, terrified? Of course we all feel all those feelings and thoughts that bring us down and make us wonder if we can survive. But I would have to say that when you come right down to it, to the moment when you realize your life is over...what are the things and moments that you reflect upon? Let's say you found out that you had 3 minutes to live...literally 3 minutes. Would you reflect on your work or would you reflect on your accomplishments? Would you remember the times you felt lonely or the moments when you felt the love of friends and family? Would you focus on your failures or the times when you shined? Do you remember that your life was miserable or do you think of the times when your life was great? Granted, you probably will be horrified to find out you had three minutes left of your life but I think you would think about your loved ones you might be leaving behind or thinking that you will never kiss that person again. You might think that "My God, I will never see the sun set or feel the soft fur of your dog when you are petting him". But my point is, is that you will think of all the moments of happiness that you experienced in your life. I know this is a very sad thought, but the truth is though it may seem sad, I think it is brilliant to take some time when you feel you have all the time in the world to reflect on the little moments of happiness in your life. So my blog pictures are those things that make me feel SO happy, no matter how insignificant they seem to be, these things make me happy!
Sand between my toes, Ice cream melting down my fingers, my best friends laughing with me, my mom's cooking, the smell of freshly cut grass, my wedding day, the touch of my cats tail, the warmth from my dog and the last bit of light the sun glows before sinking into the water... this is what I would think about!
