This is A place to smile, rest a moment, and remember the uplifting things in life
I’ll post things that I find interesting, things that make me smile. They could be videos, pictures, personal thoughts on a matter, or just things I found inspirational.
“A laugh is a smile that bursts”
An animation I found about, well, give it a watch! Tis only 30 secconds long.
I just had a slight environMENTALIST moment, heh ^_^ Save their planet
A little video that amused me - the music is fabby ^^ I wish I could play piano... "beautifully startling video born by some french students in a french prestigious media school"
I think I put the video up on my world before, not sure... But I love it - except the cats fingers - they are freaky!
Anna’s puddle
She was wearing Wellington boots
With bright stripes of red, black, orange and white
Made for jumping in puddles
And she had found one
A big one
Deep and dark and muddy
Just waiting for her
But her family were in a hurry, already walking away
“Anna, come on, it is time to go!”
Anna did not follow
She was completely enchanted by her study.
Stepping slowly into the deepest spot
She watched the water ripple away from her feet.
She stepped forwards.
More ripples appeared and disappeared.
She turned and kicked at the water.
Thousands of droplets
Showered the path
Leaving black dots shining in the sun.
But her family were impatient to be moving on.
“I’ve told you already. We will leave you here if you don’t come now!”
Anna closed her ears.
She was enthralled by her study.
She turned and kicked the other way
Harder
But into the grass so as not to splash the passers by.
Stepped into a second puddle
In the grass
Muddier
Squelching deliciously beneath her stamp
Now one foot, now the other
Sinking and sucking at her boots
She held up her skirt
And ran laughing through the puddle
“Anna!” The voice got louder, angrier,
“Come on this minute!”
Anna looked down at the water.
She was transfixed by its’ secrets.
She turned away from the insistent calling.
A figure came chasing
She ran away, round the edge of the puddle
Just flustering the water all around
He snatched her out of her enquiry
Swung her under his arm
Her wet boots flailing at the sky
Wailing and beating her fists
She is marched away from her puddle
And her joy in learning
In her own time

I just thought this was nice, I always loved puddle jumping (still do!) and this reminded me of when I was little ^_^ And i'm also happy that the little girl is named Anna.
Never grow too old to be childish
21 ways to celebrate life
Smile. Smiling makes you and those around you feel good. If you don’t feel good, a smile can trick your brain into feeling better.
Eat ice cream.
Run on the beach. If you can’t physically do this, use your imagination.
Call someone who is ill or lonely. Listen to their story. Take the time. Tell them your story, if they ask.
Listen to music that touches your heart and soul.
Sing in the shower, or out loud if you are comfortable.
Visit the grave of a loved one and celebrate your continued BREATH. And tell your loved one what’s on your mind.
Play with a dog.
Thank yourself for putting up with all the things about yourself that drive you nuts! Activate your sense of humour!
Apologize to someone you have wronged in any way.
Take a day, or even a few hours, “off” to do something you always want to do but never take the time to do.
Eat something you never indulge in (unless allergic!) and savor every bite….slowly. No guilt permitted!
Re-watch your favorite funny or happy movie in your most comfortable clothes.
Make plans with 2 friends that you are crazy about but never see…near or far away.
Go outdoors to a natural setting. Sit. Close your eyes. Listen to the world. It’s all an extension of you! Your breath connects you intrinsically to the world.
Laugh. Do something fun or silly that evokes laughter. It has been said that laughter is God’s sunshine.
Place this list in an envelope and revisit it periodically to see how you are celebrating YOURSELF! If you are good to yourself, you can be much better to those around you
.
Go to your heart and make all your decisions from there; and all will be well.
Follow the path that matters.
Believe and feel the change you want to see and you will BE the change you envision.
...Yet you must know that in the end, it is love’s garden you must tend...
I found the above in an email. If you had to add one more to this list, what would it be?
