good day


Today was a good day, nothing amazing happened but it was a good day.  It started with me writing, then got up and had a dance party while I got dresses and ready for my first day of work at my new job.  I went to work and met some awesome people and the day only proceeded to get better from there.  After work I talked to four of my favorite people in the world.  I spent over an hour today talking to people that make me smile, then I came home and made a quasi nutritious dinner, and checked my email to find a message from a friend just checking in on me. I was a good day.
It is days like today that I probably will not remember looking back on my life, but they are the days that make life worth living.  If you were to ask me to name some of the best days of my life they would include – My college graduation, the conference when everyone when to Disney, and singing in the car while driving around Hawaii.  Now the moments are magical, and I will love them forever, but I would not have moments like this if I didn’t have normal, non-adventurous, days like today to help me know when something is really special.
I believe we spend a lot of time looking for the days when something big happens, a day you will remember for the rest of your life; but the feeling of love I have in my heart right now matches the days I listed above.  Sometime it is all about recognizing the little things in life that help make your whole life complete.   I know that I have had many days like today, but today seems special because prior to today I was just having okay days, not good days. When I look back on my life, not in ninety years but when I look back at it today, I remember moments that made me feel loved – and what more could a person ask for.  I have been so lucky to have people in my life that have never made me question if I was loved or not.  Knowing that I have this amazing support network around me is such an amazing feeling; I hope you all get to have one day.
Take a look at the people you have in your life; who is making it better?  I know that I feel better when I talk to my family, so I try to make sure I talk to at least one member of my family every day.  Find the people in your life that make you feel better and make a point to add them into your everyday life.  Little thinks like getting a text from someone who makes you feel special can change a person’s whole day.  Whose day can you make better because of what you are willing to offer them.  You know what makes the people in your life smile, and see what you can do to make sure they smile every day.
I one day hope to look back and remember the feeling that I have right now – that everything is good and that days like this are normal.  Today was nothing special, but it felt amazing, and the best part is that I know that I will continue to have days like this, because I am going to be happy and my life is going to be good.  Do your part to make your life as amazing as you want it to be…
You have it all & Confidence,
Lyndsay
