One Word

Wake up

Feel your pillow against your cheek

Sense the sun seeping through the window,

Use one word to describe it.

Smile

Let happiness overcome you

Share it with your family, your friends,

Use one word to describe it.

Explore

Go into your city and appreciate it

Walk on the streets that millions have experienced in different ways,

Use one word to describe it.

Learn

Allow words and numbers

To challenge the myriad of circuits in your brain,

Use one word to describe it.

Look

Observe yourself in the mirror

Appreciate yourself

Love yourself,

And use one word to describe it.

Many words are applicable,

But only one can fully encompass all of these experiences:

Awesome.

Allow yourself to be enriched by not only the litte things in life but also things that are bigger than you. Appreciate the simplicity of your world and never take it for granted.
