The Little Things

People say that it's the little things in life that can make you happiest. No argument there.  However, what gets at me is how often the little things can also completely ruin your day. Or your week.

Why is it that in a life where things are falling apart right and left, the thing that brings me to tears is that there's not enough hot water for my bath? All I wanted was one hour to relax with a book, some good music and some foamy, scented, bubbly goodness! Is that too much to ask? Just an hour, so I can forget about everything else that sucks right now!

It's a mark of how close one is to the edge when it takes something so little to send one off into an emotional breakdown.

  1. I totally know what you mean. It always takes one tiny thing (after a build up of huge things) to push me over the edge. I hope you are doing well. I miss you and your beautiful face.

  2. I agree K. I can't even take a 15 minute shower of all hot water, and I shower at 6am! Stupid boiler system! It really does push you over the edge. I miss you and our random chats!
