We writers can sometimes get too wrapped up in stories. We dream of far off lands and characters that exist only in our minds. We type away at our computers, spilling out tales of suspense. But in the midst of all that, don’t forget to live your own story.

And living your story doesn’t mean you have to go on grand adventures—fun as they are. Life has plenty of of small, yet just as great, adventures too.

Try a new recipe. Hang out with friends. Make silly faces at your reflection. Watch a sunset. Sing karaoke in your living room. Go for a walk.

Life is filled with so many fun, magical moments, even in the ordinary. Don’t forget to enjoy them.
