The last several months of our lives have been far more full than we’d normally like. All good things but all converging at the same time. Oops! We’ve had to really slow down other areas of our lives to make room. It is all quite temporary and certainly all our choice, but still it can be tricky to juggle sometimes. Maybe you know the feeling?
Simple pleasures have been so important to keep us going—family walks, lots of pool time and lazy mornings whenever possible. For me, one of those things is Humans of New York. Do you follow it? It really is the best thing happening on the internet these days.
(I know it might seem so odd to recommend checking social media for a simple pleasure, but in this case, I’ll gladly make the exception!) Here’s one of my favorites from HONY:
“When he was dying, I said: ‘Moe, how am I going to live without you?’
He answered: ‘Take the love you have for me, and spread it around.”
Some of the posts are funny, but most are so beautiful, touching and poignant. It is a daily must for me. Always reignites my faith in humanity.
