It's The Simple Things In Life

Today is a gift. Plain and simple.

Most people take it for granted. Most people wake up, get out of bed and start their daily routine just like yesterday, and as they will tomorrow, without giving a single thought to today.

Today is special.

Old Fashioned Letter Writing. Handwritten letters have a unique charm. You can keep letters to read again and again. When was the last time you wrote a letter? Not just a card where you signed your name, but a real letter?

The simple way to make a promise to your best friend.

There is nothing more satisfying that being the first person to imprint your footprint into a fresh patch of sand. And I bet you, like me, take a dozen or steps and then glance back to see your trail.

Coming a close second is stepping in someone else's footprints to see just how big they are compared to yours.

Coupled with listening to the waves rolling onto the shore, this surely is one of the simple things in life.

Anywhere. Anytime.

Stop for a moment. Close your eyes. Take a deep breath. Relax.

Being able to sit in silence with someone and not have that awkward feeling.

If today was not good to you, just remember the simple things in life.

Knowing there is always tomorrow will always put a smile on your face again.

Not just any old hugs, but surprise hugs from behind.

The crunch of an apple is so lovely, so simple, so enjoyable. And you know the saying....An apple a day keeps the doctor away....
