“The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quite alone with the heavens, nature and God.” – Ann Frank
I was just browsing the internet this morning when I thought I smelled something like newly cut grass. Since I was in my room, I felt I may have just imagined things. It’s been a long time since I was able to freely go out. The pandemic has somewhat confined me indoors.
Whether it was just my imagination or whether the smell of grass has somewhat found its way to my room, I’m still grateful. That smell has reminded me of those times I was walking along the park with loved ones, when I was free to move and run and breathe without fear of being sick or infected with a virus. That smell has reminded me of all those wonderful times I was able to travel to faraway places, enjoying the company of friends.
It’s amazing what gifts the little things could bring us. Sometimes, we don’t need a grand solution to all our problems. Sometimes, all we need is a little break, a little happiness, and a little reminder that there are still some good things in this world we’re living in.
“I don’t think of all the misery, but of the beauty that still remains.” – Ann Frank
