you are in contact with your soul - if you are comfortable being alone with yourself , if you sing to yourself , if you smile at the little things , like the shapes of clouds , or the way the breeze plays with your hair , if you notice the many ironies and paradoxes of life and laugh at them , if you are thankful , if you are filled with gratitude , if you find yourself awed by everyday things and rare things , if you find yourself awed by how easy it is to give thanks .
