Raindrops on the rooftop

It's another rainy day, like literally. I woke up this morning to the sound of raindrops falling from the skies to my rooftop and the occasional greeting of the thunder as if saying good morning. The sound of the rain felt like music to my ears. I guess I wake up on the right side of the bed even if I slept for just a few hours or I just really don't have any plans to go out today.  

I'm just wondering why people tend to use rain as a metaphor for sadness, problems, and what-not. Probably the gloominess of the skies when it rains is one of the reasons. I mean, when one has problems it makes one gloomy and sad. 

Have a great day everyone. :)

The Power of a Smile

I was just wondering how really powerful a smile can be. If it is true that you can help brighten another person's day just by smiling. 

The thing is, usually people are so busy that they tend to go about their own businesses, not caring about the people around them. A good example would be the morning rush, people tend to pass by each other trying to walk fast so as not to be late in their jobs, schools, or meetings. You're probably asking where I'm going with this, right? Here's the story:

A few weeks ago, I was walking along with everyone else one morning when a person came across me, he was walking too. He was smiling at everyone and he smiled at me too, even greeted me good morning. As a normal reaction I smiled back. I don't know who he is really but it was a good way to start the day. I mean, I found myself smiling at people that came my way that morning and even though some did not smile back there are also some that did and it kind of gives off a certain happy feeling. I think I should thank that guy for making me start that day with a smile, so whoever you are anonymous guy "Thank you.":)

When I think about it, a smile can really have a big effect on others. I mean, wouldn't it? For example, when your buying stuff in a grocery store or ordering a meal in a fast food joint wouldn't the experience be more awesome if the teller / cashier greets you with a smile?

To end, I think I know now how powerful a smile can be. :)))

Have a great Sunday!

Waking up super early and lovin' it

Have you ever tried of waking up on the thought that you're already late for something but when you look at the clock it's still very early?

This just happened to me today. I was still in dreamland (at least I think I was) when my eyes sprung wide open and the thought that "Hey, wake up it's already 8!" is supplied to your mind. I almost jumped out of bed only to be feeling sorry for myself when I look at the clock.

Yes! I woke up at 3 in the morning (well it was around 3:30 though -I'm over exaggerating). So, I went back to bed, tried to sleep again when a drum and lyre core passed by our house at 4 a.m (belting their parade tune out) waking me up even more. So, I got up and figured "I'm awake now, might as well be productive".

Well, I did woke up with a great mood today, so, instead of trying to go back to sleep, here I am blogging about it (hahaha :D).

Have great Saturday everyone! :)
