Sorry if this makes no sense to any of you. Just had to get that off of my chest

This makes perfect sense, I've lived my life using that philosophy for a long time now, and I love it. I used to explain it as:
People often view life as boring except for those few sparkles in the dark (that vacation, that party, that FIRST Regional...). So we trudge through life with our minds set to those few moments when we know our environment will make us happy.
But it isn't our environment that makes us happy, it's loving one-self that enables us to enjoy any environment we are in (work, bed, couch watching tv...).
Many people spend their entire lives... waiting.... waiting for that time when their environment makes them happy, and many of us aleady know that WAITING SUCKS!
So stop waiting, and start enjoying that time spent while you are sitting at your keyboard typing a paper, petting your pet dog, or laughing along (or at) a coworker
It is indeed the little things.
