Hello all! Lately I’ve been really happy to be alive. I feel that way 99.9% of the time, but it’s been extra prevalent recently!
To keep myself from bursting at the seams with joy, I decided to compose a list of things that I love (in no particular order):
- My family
- My friends
- My triathlon team/family
- Balloons
- Flowers
- People that smile when they see you
- Grass
- SUNSHINE!
- Swimming, biking, and running
- Coffee that’s just the right temperature
- Food that gives me boundless energy
- Freshly shaven legs (honesty is important)
- Upcoming birthday!!
- The Spanish language
- Hugging people
- Laughing!
- The smell of outside when you leave your apartment for the first time that day
- The smell of your apartment after a long day out and about
- Holding hands
- Coffee ice cream!
- Hanging out with my niece and nephew
- Learning new things about any given subject
- Cashew milk
- Climbing over rocks
- Walking around in muddy areas
- Driving through the country side
- Telling people how much you appreciate them
- Being unafraid
- Cool music that makes you want to dance
- People that love me even when they’ve seen me at my worst
- My dad’s pasta arrabiatta
- Trying to do handstands in random places
- Dragging my sister on adventures with me (Thursday, Erica. Just you wait!)
- Paddle boarding and kayaking
- Sun glares on pictures
- My curly dark hair
- People whose eyes wrinkle when they smile
- Passionate people that want to do good
- Laying down in bed after being on your feet
- Wearing ugly socks where everyone can see
- My Road ID and broken Ironman watch
- Being surprised! (But don’t hint)
- Searching the Kayak app for affordable plane tickets
- Thinking about when I’ll see Sabrina & Mathew next
- Being surrounded by some incredibly cool people
- My homie apartment
- My freedom to express the inner workings of my mind on this blog
- Brave Girls Club
- Silly snapchat pictures
- The Trio! 🙂
- The way certain people have little catch phrases or hand motions that they’re unaware of using all the time
- The air freshener I have in my car right now
- Throwing something towards be trash and MAKING IT IN!
- The thrill of falling – but safely (I need to bungee jump again)
- Imagining the potential the future holds
I’m going to be honest. This list could just keep going and going but I have work at 8 tomorrow morning, so I’d like to sleep!
I’d encourage you to make a list of stuff that you love! It feels pretty good 🙂
Goodnight!
Love,
Ju
