stand and smile

I stepped out of my front door this morning and walked into sunlight.
I was instantly happy.
I love those moments that arrest your soul,
that leave you breathless.
I was hopeless to its attack, it just came on me and I couldn't do anything but stand there, face towards the sun with a smirk spread across my face.

So I just stood, it was all I could do.
Stand and smile.

It was like the morning was awake,
like one of those people who have a brisk shower in the morning, all chipper and ready to wake everyone up, not in an annoying way though,
no - this was the pleasent chipper kind, the sort that makes you smile because there is so much genuine joy.

I am going to go stand and smile in the sun,
its a wonderful habit to get into.
