Finding A Smile



Life is certainly full of surprises.
There are times when a simple sentence can hurt you and there are times when it can just make you happy.

Actually, I can't really point to what makes today different. At first glance, everything seems exactly like yesterday. A typical work day at the office. But somehow.. something.. is making me smile.

And I got this silly song now in the head that keep on repeating itself (laughing). You know that scene from 'Finding Nemo' where Nemo's Dad was voicing out his worry on how to find Nemo, and Dory was trying to make him smile? It goes like this:

Dory: Hey there, Mr. Grumpy Gills. When life gets you down do you wanna know what you've gotta do?
Marlin: No I don't wanna know.
Dory: [singing] Just keep swimming. Just keep swimming. Just keep swimming, swimming, swimming. What do we do? We swim, swim.
Marlin: Dory, no singing. Now I'm stuck with that song... Now it's in my head.

What if.. it's not a song that is stuck in your head? What if it's something else.. a thought that can makes me smile even when I'm sad? A sentence or a word that soothes the heart.. and makes time seems to stop?

One day at a time..Just keep on swimming..
