The world feels like it’s on fire most days, doesn’t it?
News cycles designed to spike your cortisol. Social media feeding you rage for engagement. Everyone’s angry about something, and that anger is contagious as hell.
But here’s what I want to know…
What was good in your world over the last few weeks?
Not the big, Instagram worthy stuff. I’m talking about the small moments that made you pause and think, “Oh, that’s nice.”
Maybe your coffee was perfect one morning. Maybe a stranger smiled at you for no reason. Maybe you finally figured out that thing you’d been struggling with. Maybe your pet did something ridiculously cute. Maybe you read a sentence that hit you right in the feels…
Maybe you created something that didn’t exist before.
The chaos isn’t going anywhere. The world will keep serving up fresh disasters and manufactured outrage tomorrow.
But somewhere in between all that noise, good shit is still happening.
Small victories are still being won. Tiny moments of beauty are still occurring.
I want to hear about yours.
Not because I’m trying to toxic positivity my way out of acknowledging that things are genuinely fucked up right now.
But because focusing only on what’s broken makes us forget that repair is possible. That growth is happening. That humans are still doing beautiful, weird, wonderful things every single day.
So hit reply and tell me.
What made you smile lately? What surprised you? What reminded you that this whole existence thing isn’t completely terrible?
I’ll read every response.
Cause sometimes we all need reminding that good things are still happening, even when the world feels like it’s losing its damn mind.
What’s your good thing?

This is also arguably the best instagram account on the internet that you totally should follow because of various reasons wink wink…
P.S. If you can’t think of anything good right away, that’s okay too. Sometimes we’re so focused on surviving the chaos that we forget to notice the small wins. But they’re there. Start looking for them today.
