Oh, as the light goes out, thoughts turn to angels over us.

Today was an exceptionally long day consisting of constant long periods of sitting. Periods of time in which I would have much rather been sleeping or studying for my upcoming psychology exam. Not that I actually want to study, but you know, I do need to pass. This will be the first psychology test I take after deciding to make it a life-long sort of deal. Keep the fingers crossed!

Before I head to bed, I would like to touch on something I don't think many people think about during their long drawn out days. Even though today was exceptionally long and seemed to never end, there were very small, subtle moments that made it all the worth while. Everyday brings at least one of these moments for me and most likely for everyone else. It's realizing they are happening when they are happening thats important.

For example, yesterday on the way home from dance practice, I was sitting in the back seat of my friend's car. She rolled down all the windows and the exceptionally cool night air whipped across my face. She turned the volume up on a new favorite song, and I closed my eyes. Taking in the wind, the sounds of the music, and centering my breathing, I felt completely calm and absolutely amazing. This moment made yesterday for me.

Do you have moments like these?

If I live for anything, it's for music and special moments like yesterday's. What do you live for?

Think about it.

Goodnight :)
