Little Things


"I see trees of green
Red roses too
I see them bloom
For me and you
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world..."
                  Louis Armstrong

You know it's the little things that make life wonderful.  It's the little things that can bring you true happiness.  It's the little things in life that matter the most.

There is something good in every day; sometimes we just have to look for it.  We have to notice the little things like a child's kiss, little arms around your neck, or a cup of hot chocolate on a cold winter's day.  Or maybe it's your friends - your family.  Maybe it's when someone smiles at you, when someone holds a door open for you, or maybe it's the laughter you share.  The little things...the little moments...maybe they aren't so little after all.  Sometimes the smallest things take up the most room in your heart.  These little things can add up to a lifetime of beautiful memories.  Celebrate every moment.

Learn to appreciate everything and everyone you have in your life because these moments will soon pass, and you'll wish you'd treasured them more.  Never let the things you want make you forget the things you have.

So the next time that child reaches for your hand, or you wake up to the smell of coffee in the morning, appreciate the moment.  Be grateful for today and never take anything for granted.  Life is a blessing, and the world is full of beautiful things - including you.
"In everything give thanks..."
I Thessalonians 5:18
