How is discover that washing the dishes is awesome..

Today, seemed like any other day, I couldn't find anything that surprise me. Today it was hot outside, my knee was hurting, and I had swim practice latter on. Today, I got trapped into the routine, I was  walking like a zombie, with thousands of thoughts in my mind taking me away from the beauty of the present. Today,  everything smelled like shit, and my pants felt uncomfortable. Today, I couldn't find a clean bowl to eat my cereals because I live with 7 other male swimmers that are as lazy as I am to do the dishes.
My day was shitty, and on top of that I had to clean the bowl in which I was going to eat my cereal. Then something wired happened, maybe because of the water of the sink was cold, or maybe the magic of that beautiful moment when you do the dishes from last week, or maybe the two things, mixed woke me up from the zombie mode i had been since the morning. Then, I realized that today is a special day only because everyday should be special. Today is a special day only because is Tuesday, only bacause is October, only bacause is 2014, only bacause we will never repeat this day again in our whole lives... And because of that, we should never stop being surprised with the little things that life shows us everyday, like a sunrise, a sunset or the moon.  
I need to confess that while I'm writing here, I remind my self to be surprised with the little things. Because I'm just a normal guy, who started this pointless blog to improve his English, who gets trapped into the routine, and who forgets that the beauty of life is in small things, in normal things.

So wake up, don't let this day go away without enjoying it's passage, without making some one smile, without getting a step closer to your dreams, without listening to your heart, without telling a nice story, without telling someone special how much you love them.
And if you find happen to have a bad day like the one I was having today, I generously offer my dirty dishes, my sink, and its cold water so you can wake up and start seeing the beautiful things that make life the greates adventure ever!!
