Can't Help and not taking things for granted rant


This song has been on repeat ever since the album came out. Actually the whole album has been on repeat. All of the songs are pretty fantastic and by far the best album Parachute has had.
This song though. It just makes me want to dance! And it sure makes love sound great doesn't it? A feeling that you can't help. Something that happens without you meaning for it to and changes your life. I wouldn't mind experiencing what this song is talking about right about now. Then again, who wouldn't want that right?


The last few days have been full of me laying in bed watching Scrubs and Gilmore Girls because I've been sick. It's been lovely. I'm feeling better and it got me thinking to how easily we can take things for granted. It's funny how when you are sick you can't even remember what it feels like to be healthy, even though you've been living that way more often than being sick. It's sad how often we take things like our health for granted. I think people take the small things for granted too often.
Waking up to the sun shining.
A song that fits your mood.
Driving without getting in an accident.
Your health.
Random acts of kindness.
A hot shower.
Warm brownies.
Knowing someone cares.
Lazy days.
Lightning bugs.

Sometimes it's the simple things that maybe we brush off and don't fully take the time to appreciate.
Sometimes it's the simple and little things that have the ability to change our perspective and make us realize just how blessed each of us are.

Just a random thought for your Tuesday.
Open your eyes to the little things all around you and see how your perspective changes.
Don't take things for granted.
