Theres never a bad time to reflect on some of the small things that make being alive incredible and life absolutely worth living. The little things often overlooked and forgotten in the face of the tragedies and heartbreaks that occur so often in the world we live in. Its especially during hardship that we have to cling to the things that motivate and inspire us to continue our journey when life or existing seems pointless or even worthless. So having said that, I present a list of some of the little reasons to find strength and keep fighting: Hugs from people who smell good. Hot chocolate, tea or coffee on cold winter mornings. The smell of clean bed sheets. The sound of leaves crunching under your feet during fall. Midnight snacks. The cold side of the pillow. Discovering new books to read. The next season of your favorite tv show. Sunsets that turn the sky all different shades of red, orange, purple and pink. Brownies. Cat videos on the internet. Clouds that make cool shapes. Hot showers. The feeling of sand between your toes. The feeling of clothes fresh out of the dryer. Song lyrics that fill your soul. Bubble baths. The feel of grass on bare feet. The smell of old books. The smell of summer barbecues. Coloring books. Because youre never too old for them. Bendy straws. The sound of rain on your window. Baby animals. Jumping on trampolines. Cookies still warm from the oven. Restaurants with free WiFi. Finding money in your pocket that you forgot you put there. Stargazing. Bad puns that are still funny. Cute strangers who smile at you. The smell of bonfires. Cheesy dance songs. Summer carnivals. The sound of birds chirping. Driving with the car windows down, the heat on and the radio turned up. Waking up in the middle of the night and realizing you have more time to sleep before your alarm goes off. All the movies you havent watched yet on Netflix. The feeling of sunlight on your face. And ultimately, realizing that ending your chances of anything getting worse, is only taking away the chance of it ever getting better. And it will get better because it always gets better! And you deserve to be alive to see the day it does.
