the sun

it makes such a big difference when the sun shines. it brings this internal happiness that just fills you up. warmth, kindness, happy. it all surrounds you. you don't even remember what was so hard about the winter. what were you so agitated about? what was the big deal with the gray and the cold? you forget. really easily you forget how terrible it was because the fact that you can sit out on your patio and soak in the sun while you drink iced tea is all that really matters at this point.

mother's tell me that they consider having children again because they forget the pain of child birth. the forget all the excruciating pain of that day because they are so filled with love for this little one. this new light that has filled their lives.

small proofs that happiness overrides pain, anxiety, and hardship. how are we spending our days then? how full is the glass?
