The Little Things

I take the little things in life for granted. We all do. It isn’t until something is taken away that we truly understand how much we use and need it.

Take, for instance, being sick (which I underwent today). Being able to breath without feeling like your chest is going to explode, a little thing I learned was nice today. Going to school and work, yes I missed both of these exercises.

I found myself bored and unable to sleep because the house was so bright. I really did miss sitting in a classroom and learning something. We all complain about how much we hate going to school, how tedious it is; however, I reacquainted myself with my love of learning today.

I love my job, I love both of my majors, but why is it that I find myself going through the motions half-heartedly? Being away from my normal life for twenty four hours has made me realize a lot of things.

We should all step back once in a while and reacquaint ourselves with our realities.
