25 Small But Amazing Things

If you are a cynic and live in a permanent state of complaining, this post is not for you. Or may be it is ….

Silence of early, misty dawn
Earthy smell of rain
Tiny arms of a child wrapped around the neck
Unexpected greeting from a complete stranger
An old song triggering a happy memory
Finding forgotten money in an old pair of jeans
Getting an email from long lost friend
The strong jet of water in the shower
A long, enveloping bear hug from your partner
A kitten strutting across your path
A movie you’ve missed showing on TV
Shoes that feel like socks
A fit of giggles
A rainbow
Finding a forgotten picture in which you look amazing
Discovering twenty minutes have gone by on the treadmill, and you thought you just started
The last item on the rack, on sale at 70%, and it’s your size and colour
Hearing an old melody remixed to bring it up to date
Sleeping so deeply you wake up with no idea of what day it is
Getting a gift you actually wanted – and it’s a surprise
A piece of real, tasty strawberry in your ice cream
A parking space that opens up just as you pull up
The unique, fresh smell of a baby
Getting on a scale and finding you are much closer to your target
Freshly baked bread

What is your small amazing thing today?
