The other day I received an email that my poem I submitted to an amateur poetry contest made it to the semi-finals! Now, I know that doesn't mean a lot to everyone, but the momentary spark of happiness it generated in my day was so wonderful. It's not often you get a happy email!
But maybe for you it's not a poem update. Maybe for you it's the surprise cup of coffee a friend brought you, or coming home to your partner having gotten takeout so you don't have to cook, or just an evening with a great breeze so you can sit outside in the summer and not be stifling hot.
Whatever the unexpected surprise of your day might be, I hope it brought a genuine smile to your face and paused all other life stressors because those breaks in the day are needed and help us reset.
Feel free to share your unexpected happy surprise!
