things I saw today that make me happy:
(i.e. an unusually warm February day in the Midwest)
• kids exploring down by a stream
• a cute old man smiling in his pickup truck with a Christmas wreath still on the grill
• a couple in a car coming toward me with both of their hands out the windows catching the wind
• sunlight filtering through a row of pines with their shadows stretching across the road in front of me
