Little things

It's funny that it took such a tragic event to positively change my life and my perspective. What I would have normally overlooked as an everyday no big deal accomplishment, is now a life changing and uplifting experience; Like changing a diaper by myself for the first time, no biggie, right? Well, after I did it I felt like I needed an entire football team to hoist me up while the stadium cheers me on, that's how ecstatic I felt at that moment, and just now on my dailt constutional across the backyard, caneless, I went up one of the small hills backthere which I had been avoiding out of aprehension, but I thought, what the heck, let's give it a go and I did it! This experience has helped me to sit back and really enjoy my life. I listen to all of the sounds around me, smell the smells and feel the air, I look at the scenery and enjoy the feel of the sun on my skin more than ever. I guess that goes to show that there really can be blessings in disguise. This one was super incognito at first!
