The Little Things

Little things allow big things to happen

 

 

The little things are what allow the big things to happen.  Most of the time, I focus on the big result that I want to see come to fruition.  I forget that it is impossible to get that outcome without a lot of little things falling into place.  The little things are often not very exciting.  In fact, they usually are quite mundane and ordinary.  But they matter.

 

Without the little things, our life would be stale and boring.  A little hug from a little child can make your day brighter.  A little laugh between you and another person can make a horrible situation seem bearable.  And, a little kind word from a complete stranger can give you hope when you desperately need it.  These little things come when we need them the most.  But, we just forget to recognize them.

 

Today, I am giving thanks for all of the little things in my life.  I am grateful for these blessings because without them, I would not have the big things.
