enjoying the small things.
me and the fantastic kelle hampton have the same birthday —- tomorrow. so for tonight, i thought i’d follow her lead and reflect on the past year:
“Tomorrow I will dance. Tomorrow I will write. Tomorrow I will squeeze tight the goodness this year has brought and reflect on it all. But today? Today, I will enjoy the small things.”
