"You're the only reason I keep on coming home."

Funny how such little things can make one smile and remember that life is better now than it was five minutes ago.

Like a little kid's laugh when you look at them and smile and they just burst out laughing for no other reason than you smiled at them.

Or when someone tells you they miss you just because they miss spending time with you because you're you.

Or when you're lonely and suddenly you hear a cat scratching and meowing to get inside, and when you let them in, they curl up in your lap and promptly fall asleep purring their contentment.

Or when you're wondering why people hate each other so much and fight and kill each other, and then someone tells you they would literally do anything in the world, including lay down their own life, for their children and it makes you have faith again.

Or when you feel like there's no point to anything you do, and then someone tells you something you did or wrote or said made them laugh or cry when they needed it or inspire them.

Thank God that sometimes life is better now than it was five minutes ago.
