So, a bit of a back story to this particular post.
A while back, maybe about, oh I don't know, a year ago, give or take a month or two, some stuff had happened, and I don't particularly remember what inspired me, but I decided to start a list of stuff that seemed insignificant, and maybe a bit silly or childish, but made me happy, for at least that moment. Then, recently, I stumbled upon that list again, and I decided to start adding to it again.
In the end, I had fifty-one tiny things that can happen any given day, but can still help spark up an otherwise dim day in my life, and here they are!
