"Happiness is about stringing together a bunch of small pleasures." That's a quote by Ann Brashares. Call me base, but I must say that when I first read her name all I could think of was some woman sharing her bra with someone. "Ah, I forgot you were going out tonight! Here, you better take this." (as she removes her bra and hands it to the lady next to her! Okay, like I said, sometimes my sense of humor is a weird one!
At any rate, the story gets better! I looked up Ann Brashares and it turns out that she is about my age and kinda cute. She is also best known for her young-adult fiction series The Sisterhood Of The Traveling Pants! So now, not only am I thinking of her lending out her bras, but I'm thinking of her traveling pants too! Anyway, to get back to the quote, it kind of reminds me about what I was saying in yesterday's post. I look for the little things in my life to drive my happiness. This quote really just confirms what I was saying yesterday. Small pleasures are more likely to occur frequently. Thus if you can recognize the little things that can make you happy, you'll be happier than if you only wait for the larger things to happen. For instance, my little thought about Brashares gave me a modicum of happiness tonight. I am always thinking, and oftentimes I find humor in the things I see and read. Thinking about the odd things you see and read about is a great way to experience happiness. Even if what you are thinking isn't funny to anyone else but yourself, if you got a smile from it, then it was worth the thought. That's it for tonight folks. I think I did this topic more justice last night than I did tonight, so you may want to go read yesterday's post. If the lady's name wasn't Brashares, then I likely would have let that quote slide by tonight since I don't like to overwrite on any one topic. But, the vision I had of one large breasted woman lending her bra to another woman just made me chuckle and want to share the thought with you. Good night all!
