If we withhold our feelings of awe and deep reverence

for only the wide eyes and graduation stations

and all stages and only the father-daughter dances at weddings

and only the healthy baby screeching in the delivery room,

then that's only gonna add up to like 10 days in our life.

For only a life of 30,000 days,

I wanna make the other 29,990 days full of awe as well.

And my way of doing it is by writing down

these small and simple pleasures.
