are you for real?

i was watching MTV the other day and Rob Thomas came on with his new song "little wonders" from the soundtrack of Meet the Robinsons.

our lives are made
in these small hours
these little wonders
these twists & turns of fate
time falls away
but these small hours
these small hours still remain


our lives are not measured merely by the biggest moments in our lives, like graduations, wedding days, making our first million, or having one's first baby. i'd like to think that our lives are made more by 'small hours,' laughing over a meal with family, out dancing with friends, or cuddling with someone special in front of the TV. it is in these moments that we are most REAL, most free, and ready to nurture what makes us feel all tingly inside.

sure i've had my share of major moments, in fact if you really know me you know how intense i am, how i push myself to the hilt and really try to be someone i can be proud of. but these are things that we need to do. our jobs, our schoolwork, our priorities. and since i'm going to have to do them anyway, why not do it right diba? i mean if you won't do it right, then don't even bother doing it at all. that's what my dad always says.

after the moments in the spotlight, you always want back in the mundane. the song says "time falls away but these small hours still remain."

i love LOVE LOVE LOVE the 'small hours.' love walking barefoot in the sand, love walking in the rain, love cuddling, love tickles, love fleeting moments that are so rare, you wish they would never flutter away. it is because they are so brief that they are so, so special.

i don't like to play games. do you really want in?
