Today was one of those days where everything that could go wrong did. Bad luck hovered over my head all day. I was tired and annoyed of it. When I finally got home, I blew off steam to my friend and realized the bad day I was having wasn't as bad as I made myself think. I was just so annoyed with the lack of luck my day seemed to hold.
On the Bright Side by NeverShoutNever reminded me to look at the positives of today. Simple things like having my coffee this morning or spending time with my dad. It makes me wonder; why do we take for granted all the little things? The little things should be the reason our day was made. Every smile happened because of the little things in life. Without it, what would make us smile? Life changing, heart melting moments happen only once in a while. The little things are something you can depend on to help you get through every single day. As humans in a materialistic world, we don't look at the priceless moments that made us smile. We forget them the next day. In my last relationship, my best friend asked why I was smiling so much as I checked my phone for the hundredth time. I replied, "He texted me back." She asked, "What did he say?" I told her that he was just telling me he got a new UFC DVD. She didn't understand why that would make me smile. To be honest, I'm not quite sure myself. Maybe it was the fact he shared his excitement with me, or simply the fact it was another topic we could talk about. I wish I could say I'm someone who looks at life with a bright perspective all the time and can always find the tiniest flicker of light in a dark place, but the truth is I'm not. Sometimes we just need someone to show us the brighter side; the color in the black and white.
When shit out of luck, look at the bright side ♥
