Lovin' Life

So while i'm cleaning my room (darn clean checks) i've been thinking about all the postives in life. all the reasons i love my life. Here you go, i hope it can cheer you up as well.

• inside jokes (i love you a million swedish fish)
• the sun shining on my face
• the beautiful fall colors
• taking a 1.5 hour drive around rexburg area
  
• a job that lets me have fun, and get paid
• a roof over my head (even if it leaks on my bed when it rains)
• a warm fireplace to heat my apartment, and my cold toes and fingers!
• electronics that keep me sane and connected to my friends
• hot showers to relax my tense and sore body
• family and friends who can empathize with my pain
• knowing i'm growing and learning every minute of every day
• friends that i know will love me, no matter how bad i mess up
• family that HAS to love me, no matter how bad i mess up. haha
• movies and books that help me escape reality
• friends and family that support me, from all over the country. hawaii, wisconsin, oregon, maryland/georgia, idaho, etc.
  
• green grass to tickle my feet
• a car i can drive anywhere to escape
• being able to say no
• learning (slowly) that i don't need to be everything for everyone all the time.
• body pillows
• internet. so i can instant message and facebook my friends at every moment of every day, if i like.
• snail mail. so i can write my missionary sammi!
• shoes and clothes so i can strut my very own personality!
• giggling.
  
• butterflies in my tummy
• blushing so horribly my face burns
• having a laugh stuck way down in my stomach/chest area just waiting for the right moment to burst out
• walking on the beach, with the sand squishing between my toes
• dancing or laughing so hard i can't breathe
• walking with my head held high, knowing nothing's gonna bring me down
• dancing. period.
  
• taking pictures with my girls. hundreds of them.
• dry cereal.
• songs that express my emotions perfectly!
• basketball shorts and a t-shirt, sometimes comfy is more important than lookin' good.
  
• tears. of joy. sadness. release. there is something so therapeutic about tears.
  

well. this list could go on for hours. buuut i must turn to my homework.
just remember, life isn't as bad as it appears!
