In previous posts I have discussed how New York is full of the really ugly and the really beautiful, the shit with the “creme de la creme” (here and here). Today was another prime example. You have this tiny little pocket of beauty which is this “Golden Swan Garden” surrounded by dirt, grime, and homelessness.
But, you know what? I guess that’s life! When is something completely pure and wonderful? There is always another side to the coin. That is why there is always unrest and dissatisfaction in the world. That is why we keep growing and changing and advancing.
I am always looking for something new and more that makes me happy. For right now, this great summer shirt I found recently makes me happy! I feel as if I glow as I walk down the street.
It’s the little things that add up to make one big thing; little happinesses build up to make a great big happiness inside. It’s what makes life worth living for!

Life is too short–live it to the fullest. No regrets! Cliche or not–these are the truth!
