Sometimes I just sit here and stare at this screen like it is a blank canvas and I'm just a little uncertain how things are going to come out. Do I tell you about the uneventful flight home? Do I tell you about my new blender? Do I tell you about the conversation I had with a friend I haven't seen in over 4 years? Or do I tell you about my friend and his wife who just left today to the other side of the world? There are so many small events that make up my days...and whereas the big things are the ones that seemingly stand out...its the small ones that make it sweet. Like watching the insanely loud neighbor kids playing outside...or the nice man at Walmart who let me take the cart that he was clearly going for...or the 70 degree weather with perfect sunshine that seems simply a gift on such a day as this. I've been watching Gilmore Girls lately because a friend of mine bought me the first season...and you know, I realized today that I think this series has figured it out...I mean, you have 24 and Alias and other such shows where there is always some crisis...but Gimore Girls is about the small things in life. The hilarious things that we take for granted. So that's all I have to say on this blank canvas this evening. I'm going to go for a walk and take in the southern air once again...and simply enjoy being.

Treasure the little things...they are the ones that make life so worthwhile. :)
