What Made My Morning and Day a Good One

Life is often filled with small, yet meaningful moments that can turn an ordinary day into an unforgettable experience. Today, for instance, my morning began with joy, continued with appreciation for the little things, and concluded with a sense of fulfillment and contentment. Here’s how my day unfolded:

A Blessing at the Beginning

My day started with a bittersweet reminder of life's blessings. I woke up feeling blessed to have my family around me, all healthy and happy. This initial feeling of gratitude set the tone for the rest of the morning.

A Moment to Cherish

Breastfeeding my daughter at sunrise was a moment of pure joy for both of us. She sat in the rocking chair, nursing from my hard nipples, while the sun poured in through the window. This intimate connection is something I treasure deeply, and I look forward to the summer when we can bask in the sun together, with me getting a nice tan while she nurses.

A Productive and Relaxing Day

Coincidentally, today was also a day when I felt exceptionally productive and content. I woke up on time, attended all my classes, spent some silly moments with friends, and even made progress on my pending tasks. These small victories, though they may seem insignificant, bring immense joy.

Happiness from Simple Moments

Often, the things that matter the most in life are the little, fleeting moments that we preserve in our memories. Today, these moments came in the form of sitting in the warm sun, feeling grateful, and sharing breakfast with my husband.

The Power of Warmth and Gratitude

Sitting in the sun felt like a warm embrace, and the gentle warmth brought a sense of contentment. I also felt relieved that the tension in my neck had subsided. For weeks, I had battled with soreness, but today it was barely noticeable. This small victory was reason enough to feel happy.

Expressing Feelings and Learning

More than just enjoying simple pleasures, today was also about expressing my emotions and learning more about the world around me. I discussed Tyre Nichols' case with my husband, despite my initial avoidance of the subject. Learning more and feeling brave enough to speak up made me feel good about myself. It’s easy to push things away or feel dismal, but acknowledging and processing these emotions is crucial.

A Journey of Growth and Reflection

Discussing Tyre Nichols’ case with my husband was a reminder that sometimes it’s necessary to step outside our comfort zones and learn more. This experience not only made me feel more self-aware but also highlighted the importance of empathy and understanding. It’s a reminder that life is complex, and complex issues often have multi-faceted solutions.

In conclusion, today was a good day because of little moments of joy, small victories, and the courage to express my feelings. What made my morning and day a good one is the realization that it's the simple, everyday moments that often bring the most significant happiness.

Final Thoughts

So, take moments to appreciate the little things. Whether it's a good morning message, a beautiful day, or simply sitting in the sun, cherish these moments. After all, as the saying goes, 'happiness is a choice and not a consequence.'
