The Little Things

When going through life i believe it is important to enjoy the little things. it is important to just step back and breathe. a lot of people forget to do that ,but it makes life so much easier to get through if they do. Something as easy as sitting back with a cup of tea and rereading your favorite book to going to the movies to with your friends to having a dance party with yourself. people are just so stressed out with their lives and if they don't slow down sometimes on their fast paced life they will just explode. people should make time for themselves and friends and family. i mean teenagers for example have billions of different things that they stress out about. parents don't realize how bad their child's life can get until something bad happens and then it is to late. when a teenager tries to talk about their problems they are pushed down and scoffed at and told that their problems are not as bad as their parents. the brain is a really hard yet sensitive thing and just like all the other body arts it has a breaking point. some people have a breaking point that is a lot farther than others but in the end everyone dies. the only difference is that the ones who stopped to enjoy life had a lot more things to look back and smile at. for me personally i like to write and blog and sing. it helps me unwind. it helps me forget.it makes everything feel ok for a short amount of time. sometimes i get so immersed i just forget everything. i forget that maybe i am not doing so well in a class or that i can feel my best friend slipping away from me or that when i look at myself in the mirror there are many things i would like to change. i just forget. i am happy. i am alive. i may not be the best but i feel weightless and amazing. i just slip away from reality. when i am old and frail i can look back at my life and smile knowing that i did everything i wanted to do and felt the one emotion that was needed. happiness.
