One ordinary day after the other, weeks and
months go by. Then once in a while, the moment to hold still and wonder how the
time just flew by without our notice. Therefore it’s great once in a while to
hold on and make an ordinary day special.
Have you ever felt that way? I for sure have.
Therefore it’s great to take the opportunity once in a while to see how you can make a normal day something really memorable. Yes, it takes some energy and creativity, that said if you start looking you will find opportunities everywhere.
And if you’re anything like me, the best
part is that you go with a smile to bed, feeling reenergized and joyful. And
that’s a great feeling to foster.
It’s true; it takes some practice to step out of the everyday rush and look for opportunities. But it’s worth it. Also, many parents mention that once their kids are older, they wished to be more present when the kids were young and needed more attention.
Creating special moments in ordinary days is a great way to foster relationships, communication, and joy. These memories will last a lifetime.
To spark your imagination, here are some ideas to break out of routine
These are only a few examples to give you
some ideas.
And funnily enough, the idea of this blog
post came to me, exactly on such a day. It was a normal day, and we decided to
turn it upside down.
After work, we decided we want fresh air and took a trip to an amazing sand beach 40 minutes away from where we live.
The weather wasn’t perfect; it was windy
and cloudy. That said we put some windbreakers, rainboots on, packed some food
and went for it.
As the saying goes, “There is no bad
weather, only bad clothing”.
We danced with our rain boots in the water,
build a sand castle, had some sandwiches and finished our trip by laying on the
beach, grounding ourselves and looking at the clouds making up stories. We came
home relaxed, joyful, and happy.
Our beach trip is now a few weeks old, but I still remember it as it was yesterday and it reminds me that living the life of our dreams is happening in the small moments and making these moments to last and special.
