I was driving home with the windows down. The ground was wet with unseen rain. The fresh smell wafted up into my nose. The sun was peeking out from the clouds, illuminating very little but just enough. Music was blasting from the low quality stereo. And I felt more alive in those three seconds than I have in three days.
We all have small moments like this everyday. What really defines a person is if they notice them or the gum they stepped on. I notice both. My feet are planted firmly in reality, but I'm just tall enough to stand on my tiptoes and have my head go above the clouds. It's a nice, comforting feeling.
I'm continuing to have pretty good days. I hope they stay like this for the rest of the year.
