Thank u fin! What makes us smile is so important to remember! And eat beautiful blueberries and listen to cool music.....last night the birds were singing up a storm in a nearby tree and it made me smile from my inner core like crazy.....a cute dog with big brown eyes, my husband dancing and singing makes me laugh..he makes me laugh every day....every day I write a list of what I am grateful for...that makes me smile too and look at life as half full instead of empty....mindfully choosing things that are wonderful and not feeling victimized...being able to say no and not crumble......last night I tried to skateboard for the first time in my life...very cool!
I love smiles from the heart and soul!
one of my favourite smiles is when you spend a bit of time teaching a student how to do something and eventually the penny drops. Then a few weeks later you are talking to them and they are having ideas and you suddenly realise the student is actually more intelligent than yourself.
hey!-look what I did: yeah BULLET POINTS!!! smiling at these too(augh-I hate myself..
...sometimes!!!)
A smile what makes it for me? Well right now:
"walking in the rain and snow when theres no place to go..." (I am an ass, I just couldn't resist it sorry) LOL :P
my dog-she makes me smile
my friends-wherever they are and whatever they are doing, knowing they are good and that life is treating them better is always good to hear, read or see.
tim tams LOL at tim tams now
birdsong
paper cranes
beautiful japanese origami paper
paints
colours of paint -particular colours, but all of them if I am honest-just have a limited budget so I have ot try to be selective more (could that be a metaphor for something?)
BlankCanvasses make me smile because the opportunities are endless (no pun intended BC sorry) ;)
the fact that I am begining to see that there are maybe opportunities
tomorrow-that word seems to have more possibilities than it has maybe ever done...well at least in quite a few years now
sleep this does not seem to be conjuring up pain and fear in me this evening... I just may do it
love -this makes me smile right now rather than wince, or get annoyed at the hypocrisy of what I have known it to mean.
and knowing I can stop writing, right now...I can just pause my moment, and step away if I want to ...well hopefullI can Laughing some at this thought.
thankyou to good friends today.
I am sooo full of it I know!!! but what can I do?
(I have to find that clip again maybe that will clam me down a bit-and yes I know I typed clam- maybe intentional as I sure know I wasnt going for calm me down...because I am calm, it might just be happiness that I am not used to-hey :Hug_emoticon: )
oh and smiling that I have written this down here because I may well need to try to remember this moment -these smiles -here all of them, & again; when I am down....and cant get it back to being real. grrrrr at PTSD grrr and then some more!!!
