Sometimes in between the crazy hustle-and-bustle of everyday life, we forget to appreciate those small magical moments that truly bring us joy and happiness. These moments come in different ways, and always at unexpected times. Here are 10 of life's smallest, yet most beautiful, moments we experience here on planet Earth.
1. Smiling at a child you see in public
Even though you've never met them, their innocence and pure joy brings you happiness just by observing them.
2. Being lazy on a rainy day
Some days are just meant to be lived under a pile of cozy blankets in your most comfortable clothing.
3. Realizing you have a whole hour until you have to get up
Waking up before your alarm goes off only to discover you have one more whole hour of blissful sleep ahead of you, is truly one of the most satisfying feelings in the world.
4. When you receive a genuine smile from a stranger
Human kindness is truly a powerful phenomena.
5. A familiar smell from your childhood
These random waves of familiarness always come at the most random times, but bring back memories from your childhood.
6. Snuggling up to a pile of warm, freshly cleaned clothes
This is the equivalent of 1,000 hugs taking place at the same time.
7. Reading an amazing book
Sometimes escaping to a different world is exactly what you need (even if that world is fictional).
8. Cooking something that actually turns out perfectly
Cooking your own food that tastes amazing and fresh is truly rewarding.
9. Enjoying nature and being outside
Truly appreciating nature gives us a sense of tranquility and relaxation.
10. Finding an item of clothing that was destined to be yours
Sometimes, you try something on and automatically know it was meant to be. It's a great confidence boost and makes you feel and look your best.
