except for me. There will be a lot of Me.

I am drowsy, tired, eyes are literally closing as I type this but I want to type this, so I will go on because we should do what we want, even when adversity is in our way. This is not real adversity, of course, but small adversity. These little bits of conflict and obstacles and all these small truths..these can sometimes weigh you down or lift you up more than the big ones. They are valid. Who is to say they’re not.

Sometimes when you have a lot of shit going on in your life, or a lot of little nothings, and you feel that nothing is progressing and that things are stagnant, you just need to look around and recalibrate. You need to realize that the world around you is as replete with little pleasures as it is with little indecencies.

You started a new job at a PR firm that really has the potential to be something great, to be a path to a life that you never imagined for yourself but could turn out to be something magical.

You are laying in bed, drinking Thai Iced Coffee from a plastic container and you turn off the projector, decide to finish “To Kill A Mockingbird” another time, because the old will always be there to be enjoyed, but right now is time for the new.

You see the Eat, Pray, Love Premiere with good company and revel in Julia Roberts’ warmth.

You get an unexpected text telling you, ” I think of all my friends in ny, you’re the most fun to be around. Looking forward to seeing you more in the fall.”

Two of your best friends in this whole wide world are moving to your city and they are going to be at your fingertips sooner than you can imagine.

Your sister’s fiancee calls you out of the blue and asks you to be a groomsman in his wedding.  He tells you he would really like for you to be standing there at the altar beside him.

It’s the little things. The little things that are the biggest.
