The Little Things

The little things....

• the smell of fresh cut grass
• recieving a handwritten letter in the mail
• driving down the road with the windows down as the sun is setting
• baggage claims
• bare feet on wooden floors
• the sight of rough, dry hands
• candlelight and the smell of candles
• books that have been read so much their spines need taped together
• old jewelry with a story
• film pictures with spots
• sea breezes
• turquoise nail polish
• people watching
• the lure of the city
• star gazing on rooftops
• train stations
• the sound of the lawn mower outside my window
• listening to live music while walking down the street or in a station
• full art sketchbooks
• shoes that have been warn so much it feels as though you're not wearing shoes at all
• sweats and t-shirts
• building forts
• laughing uncontrollably
• silent movies
• cassette tapes and records
• movies in the park
• documentaries
• a full moon and a clear sky
• simple tattoos
• listening to music while getting ready in the morning
• country concerts in the summertime
• art gallaries
• the smell of bookstores
• big dogs and cats that love to cuddle and walk around like they own the place
• freshly washed and wavy hair
• carnival music
• boom of fireworks that hits right at your chest
• cuddling up to a man and staring at the sky
• drive-ins
• the crashing sound of waves at night
• the feeling of purpose I receive at an airport
• looking out of a plane down oat the world
• the sudden feeling of your stomach dropping that leaves you giggling afterwards
• staying in nice hotels
• the first steps out of the steamy bathroom
• being surrounded by tall boys
• drinking hot chocolate in a coffee thermos.
• marching bands at football halftimes
• the refreshing feeling of rearranging furniture
• hot coco in mugs on a rainy day

Admit it, you're smiling right now. It's the little things.
