it's the little things

Usually, all we praise are the big things. Like getting an A+ on a big test, like getting a new dog or phone. And sometimes, just sometimes, the little things that make each and every day unique and something to look forward to, happen to slip by. Unnoticed. And yes, the big things are great. They make us happy on their rare occasion. But it's the little things are always there, making us smile. So I decided I might share with you a few of my favorite little things.

one. When rain fall on your eyelashes and you have to blink it off.

two. That moment on your iPod when shuffle read your mind.

three. Continuously pressing the button for the street light to turn to the walking sign, and it works.

four. You're reading a book and one of the characters has the same name of your friend.

five. When the weather perfectly matches your mood.

six.  The sound of your friend's uncontrollable laughter.

seven. When you smile at someone you don't even know, and they smile back.

eight. When you finish the last book in a series, then feel like you want to cry because it's over.

nine. When you finally understand that one problem in math.

ten. Your favorite song comes on the radio, and you can tell from the first note.

eleven. The "thank you" wave from drivers.

twelve. Freckles

thirteen. Accomplishing something before the microwaves beeps.

fourteen. Saying bye to a group of friends, and they all say it back.

fifteen. That tiny moment when you drive under a bridge on a rainy day, and the world goes silent.

sixteen. A smile.
