It's the Simple Things...

Why is it the simple things in life can make me so happy?  Today started out really rough but all of that changed with things that didn't cost an extravagant amount of money or time. Things years ago before family I would have taken for granted.  We went to BJ's to do some shopping today while both kids were at school and I all of a sudden felt really dizzy.  So, I went and sat in the car trying to regroup and my awesome Hubby finished all of the shopping.  We got home and I started to feel slightly better.  While Bernard put everything away, I decided to take a hot shower.  I have been reading alot about living in the moment and not letting things pass you by.  So I truly thought about the heat of the shower and how relaxing it felt running over my muscles.  I listened to the silence in the room and how peaceful it was.  When I came out of the shower Bernard sat and brushed my hair for me.  The feeling of someone brushing my hair makes me melt.  I could fall asleep because I am so realxed.  They say there are an incredible amount of nerve endings in your scalp and apparently mine are hyper sensitive.  The touch of my husbands hand, the brush running through my hair, the silence throughout the house was as good as a Spa experience to me.  That short amount of time filled with simplicity changed my entire outlook on my day.  When the day is getting you down just try to focus on the little things that make you happy!  A song, a touch, a shower, or sneaking some alone time (even if it is in the bathroom-lol)...
