I dedicate this post to those who don't understand/appreciate the small things in life. (Not mentioning any names mind you...lol...but I sure could.)
I'd like to introduce you to Limon. Yes, he is a pig eraser. But oh he is so much more. I just felt all those eye rolls....stick with me for a minute. See Limons only function is to be cute. He sets on my keyboard at work, and when I pause I look down at him and smile. Why? Cause he's cute....didn't we cover this already...lol.
Remember back to when you were a child...come on, you can do it. It wasn't that long ago really, it can just seem that way when you don't hang onto the child inside. Or maybe you had the heart of a child stolen from you.
When you were a child did you have a favorite toy, maybe favorite cartoon, a pet, or even that special super hero t-shirt....that's your Limon! Its that something that made you smile just because. It probably wasn't of much value. Maybe had a part broken off or a hole from so much use. Still, you smiled when you saw it. It was important to you.
As adults we get caught up in behaving maturely, keeping one or more jobs, paying bills, raising families, caring for ailing loved ones and before we know it, we don't have a Limon. We don't have any of the simple pleasures of life.
If you want some advise...get yourself a Limon. Maybe its a picture of a beautiful golf range you put on the back of your visor and look at from time to time. Maybe a cappuccino on a dreary Monday. Maybe a copy of a song that brings back happy memories. Maybe its a lime green pig eraser on your desk that you think is cute and can smile at.
Don't miss out on the small joys waiting on a big one. You may wake up and realize while the big moments are great, the small ones are the staple of a happy life.
