Life is all about the little things that make you smile. Sometimes, when you’re in a low place, all you need to think of is the simple things that make you happy for no reason.

This is for those days where you can’t seem to find any sunlight in the clouds. This is for when you’re having the worst day possible and can’t find any good in anything.

This is to remind those of you who are in bad places in your lives that there is plenty of good things in life, and you can find happiness in the smallest of things.

1. Coffee!

2. Naps!

3. Beach days; feeling sunkissed and tired from just sitting on the beach all day!

4. Sunsets!

5. Sunrises!

6. Singing along to some good tunes in the car with your closest friends!

7. Finishing a really good book that you wish never ended!

8. Those nights with your friends where you talk about everything and open up about things you’ve never opened up about!

9. Road trips!

10. Watching your friends achieve their goals in life and fall in love!

11. Bonfires!

12. Taking pictures in cool, new places!

13. Musicals!

14. Baking (even if you’re bad at it)!

15. Getting a new foundation!

20. Realizing you’re falling in love again!

21. Telling the people you love that you love them!

22. The first kiss with someone you’ve been dying to kiss!

23. Butterflies!

24. Text messages from unexpected people!

25. Ice cream!

26. Meeting new people!

27. When random strangers compliment something about you or your outfit!

28. Complimenting a stranger!

29. Friendships that are bursts of positivity!

30. Realizing how great the people in your life are and how much you adore them!

31. Waiting for something you’re excited about!

32. Watching a really good movie for the first time!

33. Discovering new songs that put your thoughts into words!

34. Getting new lotions and perfumes!

35. Nights where the sky is full of stars!

36. Freshly shaving your entire body!

37. Reaching a goal that you worked so hard for!

38. Nights where you have no homework!

39. Laughing so hard your sides hurt!

40. Realizing that you’ll be okay!

Even when there are days where going on with life seems impossible and there aren't any reasons to be happy, I promise that there are so many beautiful things about life.

There are thousands of good things in life and there are always reasons to live.

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on.
