It's amazing how it can be just the little things that completely change your mood. For instance, I was stressed and tired when I walked into guitar today and came out a new person because I learned to play two songs that I absolutely love: "Everything" by Lifehouse and "Slow Dancing in a Burning Room" by my favorite, John Mayer- duh. (Internal happy dance after finally taking time to practice and it paying off.) Getting home and crawling into bed with the room completely dark- with the windows open at 4:45 was just perfect too. Things took a turn when watching Planet Earth, though. Yeah, sure. Anyone could have called the baby reindeer's death by wolves (as I sit on the couch shouting at it to run faster), but it just gets me every time. The polar bear famishing and digging its own grave didn't exactly lighten my mood, either. Fortunately, all it takes to pick my mood back up is a cup of hot chocolate and the satisfaction in knowing that Mom was bringing chicken alfredo home for dinner. See? Little things. Here are some other little things that are oh, so true. :)

And the best one:
