Early this morning, I went out wondering around thinking and I found myself in a scene from on of my favorite movies, Break fast at Tiffany’s.
I stood in front of Tiffany & Co. sipping my hot chocolate and nibbling on my old school doughnut I picked up from Starbucks, peering threw the shop windows at the sparkly displays admiring the beauty of the simple stones.
I never understood why Holly Golightly made stopping at Tiffany’s apart of her morning routine, but if it related to my experience, I get it now. All the stress that have been weighting me down felt as if it drifted away. I was thinking clearly, seeing things differently, and I walked away from there feeling light as a feather.
It’s hard to explain with out sounding crazy that I had a small therapy session by just staring at diamonds, but that’s exactly what happened. All the answers to my problems weren’t answered but I came to the realization that I can’t fix everything, that’s OK. What I can do is appreciate the small things, take notes on the beauty around me, and be happy. Because no matter how hard things get, I’m still alive.
I can still enjoy ice cream, go to the beach, watch a sunset, look at the stars, or admire the beauty of a diamond over Starbucks…
