what made you smile today?

our lives aren't perfect. of course everyone has good and bad days. but here's my new ritual: in my planner, i write down what made me smile that day. it doesn't have to be a grand surprise. even simple random things can make me smile. it now serves as a reminder to me that even during the worst days, there must be something good that happened, no matter how small.

i started last oct. 6, 2010 and here's what i got so far.
