Cold Breath

I can see my breath.
sometimes an ordinary, everyday moment can be magical. I realize its something inside us that makes everything outside seem bad or good, it just depends on how we look at it. The other night it was so cold I could see the white puff of my breath. It surprised me! I have never been in weather this cold. I looked up at my big brother and I gave him my biggest smile and twirled around. Then I said "look! I can see my breath!" like an excited little girl who finally mastered a trick she had been working on for days, a cartwheel or a whistle. He laughed at me, because I was being silly, but why not. Why have we stopped enjoying the simple things in life. lets stop expecting life to bring us gifts, lets be thankful for the ones she has already given us.
Yeah that all sounds good but it ain't that easy. Sometimes you realized you married the wrong man, sometimes you feel alone in the world, sometimes your lost and you don't want to stop feeling hurt, you want to fall to your knees and wait for someone else to save you. Well maybe thats okay sometimes too. Many times I have rejected happiness so I could indulge in self pity and hurt. I just try to remember that everything is always okay, and that if we don't take things so seriously, we can survive anything. Life will only stop serving you, the moment you give up hope. No matter what happens to you, it is only your self pity and inability to forgive that will stop you. Stop stressing, let life take care of you, I promise she will. Try putting on some music and smiling, for no reason! happiness for no reason is the best kind, happiness because it is so cold you can see your breath and because you have a warm cup of HoCho (hot chocolate) in your hands, well thats the second best kind. We are ALL just humans, lost in our own way, all needing to be loved and all wanting to be happy. Take a moment to become aware that you are alive! You are alive, now what are you going to do with that life?
