one of those moments

Today we decorated the house for Christmas. What could better than getting our home ready for Christmas joy and celebration? Not much, that’s for sure. Currently, I’m sitting in Starbucks with some of the roomies and “working on a paper.” Sitting here, next to the window upstairs, I had one of those awesome moments where I feel like nothing could get better. John Mayer playing on the pod, looking at downtown Athens, which is covered in Christmas lights, and incredible roommates right in front of you. I’m sitting at the edge of an incredible campus which has housed some incredible memories over the past 4 years. This paper that I am working on is important, and will get done, but there is much more to life. I was comforted in knowing that I am extremely fortunate and this paper that I’m stressed about is nothing in relation to the reality of life. I’m only 21- there is so much life ahead of me, but life is already so good right now and it will continue to be good- but bumps in the road are inevitable. I just love those moments- those small moments that seem to take your breath away because they just feel so right. The moments where you’re overwhelmed with comfort knowing that your temporary worries are not that big and life really is awesome and exciting. Know what I mean?!
