Here are some beautiful moments that, time after time, me hace sonreír:
1. On Thursdays I wait for Anabel outside her school and there is almost nothing as adorable as watching the little Spanish kiddos tumble out the gates and romp around, getting in some last minutes with friends and finding their parents....children are so innocently beautiful.
2. Though this doesn't always happen, it is eternally sweet to see people on the metro get up and offer their seat to the elderly and/or pregnant. I love the unspoken language of - is it? - love that I sometimes get to see.
3. And simply, the sun out and the skies blue. Cummings, per usual, expresses it magically:
i thank You God for most this amazing
day:for the leaping greenly spirits of trees
and a blue true dream of sky;and for everything
which is natural which is infinite which is yes
(i who have died am alive again today,
and this is the sun's birthday;this is the birth
day of life and love and wings:and of the gay
great happening illimitably earth)
how should tasting touching hearing seeing
breathing any-lifted from the no
of all nothing-human merely being
doubt unimaginable You?
(now the ears of my ears awake and
now the eyes of my eyes are opened)
