Snoopy and the art of romanticizing the mundane

Snoopy was right all along. He knew how to enjoy life. He was used to finding pleasure in the most ordinary things in life. That's why he is my role model and why I think he could be yours. An existence like that is something you usually construct over the years, with a lot of experience and maturity, but Snoopy seemed to have eternal wisdom all along.

Somewhere along the way, a lot of us got convinced that something great had to happen for us to start enjoying life. And one day, typically after much trial and error, we realize those exceptional moments are exactly that: exceptional; they don't happen very often, and they're fleeting, so we learn to appreciate our simple pleasures as the true makers of our happiness.

It's nice to have goals; they give us purpose, and they keep us going, but we can't forget to treat ourselves daily through something simple, because in the end, life is mostly made of ordinary moments. Why not make them enjoyable?

Think about when you have a cold and you suddenly miss every detail of your ordinary life you used to take for granted (for example, breathing through your nose or showering without pain). In those moments, we realize how much we actually have every day. It's nice to have a little reminder of that, and to remember to be grateful. Not in a guilty way, but in an 'I'm going to enjoy this shower because I have time and it feels good on my skin' way.

We don't necessarily need to catch a cold every so often to experience this shift in perspective, nor do we need to hang a Snoopy poster on our walls (though it could look nice). We just need to be present in our bodies, just like our most beloved beagle appears to be.

The secret (to me) isn't making every day extraordinary, nor refusing to chase extraordinary goals. The secret is making every day extraordinarily enjoyable while we work to get what we want. Don't forget to take naps on the rooftop; they are great for your spiritual health.

When was the last time you had a few hours to do absolutely nothing? Well, maybe you could take said time today if you get inspired by these Snoopy memes.

Enjoy this cozy meme list! Snoopy would want you to.
