I was walking home from something the other day and in front of me was a Dad and his toddler daughter. Or perhaps slightly older than toddler, I'm not really sure what age that encompasses. Let's say she was around three?
As they were walking along ahead of me they walked by a small puddle and that little girl made SURE to STOMP with her pink wellington boots in that puddle to make a SPLASH and kept on walking and it struck me as this great reminder to do the thing that makes you happy. See the tiny puddle and STOMP in it. Enjoy that splash.
We all know we start to miss things as we "grow up" and we all know kids can remind us to see the joy in the small things so lets let this little girl remind us to just DO the thing(s) that are fun and enlivening.
Go swing on a swing, or stomp in a puddle (with the correct rain gear!), or whatever your heart would like to do but your brain maybe forgets to do because you're so busy thinking about whatever other thing is in your mind.
Stomp y'all. Stomp real good! Why else are puddles there if not to be splashed in with your pink boots!?
