Take time in life to be completely, utterly, incandesently happy- even for the smallest of reasons.  Even for no reason at all.  In fact, those may just be the best times of all.

• Memorizing a CD so well that you start to sing each track before it plays
• The way your hands look after tye-dying without gloves
• Passing out on your floor/bed after dancing all night
• Early morning walks on the beach
• Finding odd things at antique shops
• When all the popcorn from the bag goes into the bowl in one pour
• Holding someone’s hand at a bonfire
• Exploring lit-up cities at night
• Hearing someone you love come home
• Ice cream that doesn’t drip on your hand
• Talking to your friends in stupid accents
• The smell of a new book
• Squirting whipped cream directly into your mouth
• Dipping your toes into the water
• Trying on the ugliest things in the store just for fun

• Live through the apocalypse.
• Stop watching Golden Girls reruns.
• Get a tattoo.
• Put less sugar in my coffee.
• Read through my stockpile of Chuck Palahniuk books.
• Get a scholarship.
• Go to a music festival.
• Live life unexpectedly.
