Small Joys

I was sort of sitting here, in pain from a dry socket. The horrors of having a tooth extracted. It occurred to me that as my family sits here with me, watching How to Train Your Dragon, that the world could use more positive things. So my positive thought for the day is that there are people in the world who are far worse off than I am. So pain or not, it's just a moment in time that will pass. So I'm finding the joy of the moment, being here with my family, everyone enjoying a moment of time as we watch together.

I think it's sort of the thing that could get a person through most things in life. To remember that there is joy is the small things. Joy in the moment. I wonder what small joy tomorrow will bring.
