The Little Things Matter…
Well, as I was driving around the other day, I saw how the season has totally changed. The leaves have turned and are falling to the ground, the birds have flown South for the winter, and there is a brisk chill in the air.
You know what this means….the holidays are coming! There was a time when at this time of the year I started getting depressed because of all that I did not have or had not accomplished. Well, that has surely changed…
Now, I am so thankful for all of the good things that have come to me and I appreciate the little things. Those little things can mean so much more than the big ones sometimes. I am learning that in my old age.
What are some of the little things that make you the happiest these days? I’ll go first. One — my occasional morning where I just take a minute and drink my chai tea latte and eat my banana nut bread. Two — my 30 minute whirlpool bath that is supposed to help my leg, but actually gives me some time to relax, relate and release. And lastly, that good night phone call that puts a smile on my face right before I fall asleep.
Doesn’t seem like much, does it? Maybe not to some of you, but to me my day is better if at least one of those things happen.
What are some of your little things? We have had some devastating things to happen in this country over the last few days. People are not happy and some have lost all hope. Let’s remember those who have suffered loss and take a moment to think on the little things that really do matter.
