Sometimes, it feels as if you're on autopilot. Living each day the same, over and over again. Which is why it can be important to find simple joys in your day to day life.
Focusing on something that brings you a hint of joy everyday really makes each day more interesting. Some ideas could be a class that you love, a time where you get to see your favorite person (or people), or a club you enjoy (anything other than when you go home). The more you implement small moments of joy into your life, the more they will start to appear.
Sometimes, we build unattainable expectations for ourselves and what our lives should look like. However, it is not always the big things that make our day but the simple things that bring us joy. Once we slowly stop focusing on what we don't have, the things that we do shine evermore brighter.
