Fairly recently, Jason and I went to a late showing of Superman. We were pretty excited to be out together since we’d both been working a lot. Next thing you know, the screen started going crazy and the sounds didn’t match. We waited for almost 30 minutes for them to fix the situation. We looked at each other with the ummmm…it may be time to get up out of here and get our money back face. Next thing we knew, they gave us free movie tickets. Forward to today. I went to buy a few things at Walgreens and guess what I found? Those movie tickets! I tucked them away in my wallet so I wouldn’t lose them. Well, I didn’t lose them, but I totally forgot they existed. I reminded Jason and we both resounded with a synonymous “DATE NIGHT!!!!” Then we committed to a high five.
My only point in sharing this is that good things happen. And then we forget. But when we remember, it’s all the more sweet! I’ll be randomly sharing things like these because I think that it’s important to both remember and acknowledge the good things that happen. It’s way too easy to complain. So I want to make a habit of gratitude.
What good things have happened for you this week?
Free movie…that sounds like a great thing to forget about and then find tickets for. This week I was floored by the appreciation and recognition I recieved at work.
Yes! Especially for Jason and I. We LOVE going to the movies.
I’m glad that you were recognized at your job. It’s a great feeling to be affirmed when you produce great work. I hope your weekend is just as good (or even better) than your week! Thanks for sharing =)
I got to spend an evening with you! I want to be grateful with you. Thank you for the reminder. Good things happen, too.
The pleasure was definitely all mine!!! If I’ll only be able to see you once a year, I’ll take it! XoXoXoXo
