1. My daughter's smile:
My daughter's smile has moved me since the day she smiled for the first time. My daughter is beautiful and when she smiles, it's just pure radiance. Her smile can bring light to a dark place. Her smile can alleviate my sadness. It's a healing balm. Her smile gives hope to the hopeless. No matter how I'm feeling, her smile makes me smile every time. My daughter's smile is simply magical.
2. Anything and everything about my granddaughter:
My granddaughter is the most charming and beautiful little person I know. The many faces that she makes always tickle me and warm my heart. Her laughter makes my heart flutter. The little habits she has developed - like patting her bottle as she drinks - just make me smile. I look forward to seeing what new things she has learned each day when I get home. Her innocence and light remind me that life is good.
3. My boyfriend's kisses:
Sometimes, a playful peck on the lips. Sometimes a little more. Sometimes soft and gentle. Sometimes hungry and fierce. But always, always, always passionate and loving. His kisses remind me that he cares for me and desires me. His kisses remind me that he WANTS to be with me - it's not a chore or obligation. His kisses make me feel both loved and lovable - and that's huge. What moves me even more, though, are the times when he gently kisses my forehead or my cheek. It creates a warm feeling deep inside that I really cannot put into words. Those kisses, for whatever reason, make me feel very special and protected. His kisses leave me with no doubt about how he feels about me.
4. Nature:
From sunrise to sunset, everything I see in nature leaves me in awe because I know only God could have created it. Every tree, every flower, every raindrop, every breeze, every cloud reminds me that there is am amazing God working hard in Heaven. It makes me not fear death. It reminds me that, with Him in control, my life will play out as it should and He will be by my side the whole time. That gives me peace on a daily basis.
None of these cost me a dime. I don't have to make an appointment to get them. I don't have to drive far or work hard either. They are all free and wonderful. They all touch my soul in a deep and meaningful way.
So, as you experience each day of your life, think about what moves you. Are you creating memorable moments? Are you experiencing deep emotion? Is there something that helps you get through the rough times? If your answer is "no," I encourage you to find something in life that really moves you in a significant way. It may change how you look at life.
