Someone like you...

If you look close enough to the
world around you,
you might see someone like you.

Someone trying to find their way.
Someone trying to find their place.
Someone trying to find their self.
Sometimes it seems like you are the only

one

in the world who's struggling,
who's frustrated,
or unsatisfied,
or barely getting by.
But that feeling's a lie.
And if you just hold on,
just find the courage to

face it all

for another day,
someone or something will find you and make it all okay.
Because we all need a little help sometimes.
Someone to help us hear the music in the world, to remind us that it won't always be this way.

That someone is out there.


And that someone will find you.

-Lucas Scott, One Tree Hill

How to make a happy day....

How does a happy day work? 
It starts by waking up next to someone you want to wake up to every day for the rest of your life. 
Pretty great start, eh?

I thought so. 

Next step--pancakes. 
With peanut butter of course. 

Third step of a happy day:
Play with the puppy who, of course, loves you unconditionally. 
And brings the ball back every time. 

Forth step of a happy day:
Long, hot shower. 

Fifth step--
Talk about what else we can do today. 

Sixth step:
Pick something to do. 

Seventh step:
Grab some lunch

Eighth step:
Enjoy the afternoon. 

Number nine:
Supper time.

Tenth step:
Relax with some tv.

Final step of a happy day:
Go to sleep next to the person you want to spend every night with for the rest of your life. 

24 hours of bliss. 

“What you have to decide... is how you want your life to be. If your forever was ending tomorrow, would this be how you'd want to have spent it? Listen, the truth is, nothing is guaranteed. You know that more than anybody. So don't be afraid. Be alive.”
― Sarah Dessen, The Truth About Forever

Oh, and steps two through ten?? Entirely irrelevant.
