you need it. This video will also be made into a  podcast episode for The Lana Blakely Podcast.  

Stores and restaurants that are open  24 hours a day. There's something  

about knowing there's always a place  to go to where someone else will be. 

Hearing the footsteps of your pet The footprints of various animals in the snow 

The warmth of garments that have  just been picked out of the dryer 

Milk being poured into coffee When two strangers find each other in a  

crowded place, such as a party, and end up having  a long conversation as if they were totally alone 

Rolling down the window while  riding in the backseat of a car 

Watering your plants and watching  the soil go from dry to wet 

Feeling the warmth of the sun against your back Dog ears. Just dog ears. 

Finding a song you haven't heard before  and it's as if it was just made for you,  

for that very moment Seeing a single flower growing  

in a random place… makes you believe that even  seemingly odd or even impossible things do happen 

Imagining that the moon IS actually following  your car; that it's keeping an eye on you  

to make sure you're safe The word 'butternut squash' 

Feeling the warmth of holding  a cup of hot beverage spread to  

the rest of your body on a cold day To think that there was a time when  

you couldn't even walk or say a single word.  Look how far you've come. I'm proud of you. 

Socks. They're like a little hug for your feet. Did you know that there's a bee species  

that sleep curled up in flowers? They say when dogs dream, they likely dream  

about dog things like chasing squirrels, running  after rabbits, and playing fetch with you.  

The YouTube channel “Pain hours” Red dwarfs, stars with less than 0.4  

solar masses, burn so slowly that they  might live to 100 billion years old,  

much longer than the current age of the universe.  I find that both terrifying and comforting.  

You've been a good friend. You've done your best.  

There was nothing more you could've done. Stop beating yourself up.  

Beauty fades. There's something  oddly comforting about that.  

In fact, nothing is really permanent. No feeling  of shame, grief or guilt will remain as intense  

as it does when it's recently occured. See, Sarah Lynn, we're not doomed.  

In the great grand scheme of things, we're just  tiny specks that will one day be forgotten.  

So, it doesn't matter what we did in  the past, or how we will be remembered.  

That's from BoJack Horseman. The fact that the flame of a single  

candle can light thousands of other candles. Although the world is full of suffering, it is  

also full of the overcoming of it. - Helen Keller Falling asleep in the car, feeling safe 

Falling asleep on the couch and  waking up with a blanket on  

The fact that someone invented garlic bread Realizing that somewhere, there are at least a  

few other kids who were born at the same hospital  as you, around the same time. You may never meet  

them, yet you'll always share that special moment  with them. You entered life apart, but together 

The first bite of a crispy fry Being hugged by someone who makes you feel small 

Whiskers on kittens Being outside on a warm summer night 

Those mini raindrop races down the car  window and rooting for that one special  

raindrop as they all travel down the window. The fact that so many of you can relate to that.  

We seem to think such experiences  are personal and specific to us,  

but we share much more than we think A fully charged phone  

As I read this list to you, it may sound like I'm  someone who's got it all figured out. No one does.  

I've failed at so many things.. Oh, you too? The cute little sneeze noises dogs make  

to let you know they're just playin Being fascinated by how easily entertained  

kids are. The other day, I saw a kid jump up and  down from the very same rock at least 40 times.  

Speaking of children, we live on a  floating rock, and sometimes I pretend  

like it's moving a bit too fast and I lose  my balance. Being childish is comforting.  

No one thinks as badly of you  as you think of yourself.  

You ever wonder why do birds sing so early? Some  say early mornings are too dark to search for  

food, and too dark to be spotted by predators.  That makes it the perfect time to sing.  

If, after a long day, no matter how tough or  tiring, you can sleep in your own bed tonight,  

things may be better than you think. The Swedish word “Ro” which means tranquility,  

peace, rest, quietness. The fact that there are  

entire boutiques dedicated to tea Being able to express emotions, to cry,  

is comforting. Shed a tear if you feel  like it. We all do sometimes. It's okay.  

And finally, You. Your presence  is comforting to someone.
