We should all appreciate the little things in life, and when you live in a city full of inconvenience, the little victories throughout the day matter the most.
When the elevator comes straight to your floor.
Out of the forty floors of people in your building, right at that moment, you were the only one to click and button, and the rapid arrival of the elevator almost makes your day.
Just making your subway train.
You seriously can't help but smile and feel a little superior of your train catching abilities when those doors slam shut behind you.
Not getting hit by a cab as the hand stops blinking.
Not dying today sir, no thank you.
When a tourist asks for direction, and you know EXACTLY where they need to go.
Look at you, you are so smart.
When you have exactly 2.75 on your Metrocard.
When the subway performers are singing a classic.
Yes, sometimes it's a little annoying but when they bust out that those early 00's jams, how can you not smile?
When you get a lunch under $10
make sure you remember exactly where you ate and what you got because this may never happen again.
Random acts of kindness
Who ever act New Yorkers are mean just don;t understand, they aren't mean, they are busy. We do care about each other now.
St. Marks Place or Union Square at night
Everyone is out and so alive, the energy is unlike any other.
Free stuff, literally anything free.
No serious if you get something for free in NYC, cherish it babe.
