the little things that are so big


Are these little things?
  • a smile
  • a laughing child
  • a thank you
  • a helpful answer to a stranger asking directions
  • a rainbow (somewhere over the rainbow is a BIG challenge to reach)
  • a good night's rest (we all need these)

Little events continuously pop into our lives, some happy, some sad, some hardly noticed.  They can all add up to tip your mood.

I have written before that I don’t care for lists and the one above is certainly not complete.  The list was an simple way to convey this idea of little things.  It would be nice if you could share your additions to the list.

So as the Goo Goo Dolls sang:
Give a Little Bit

thanks - Something tells me you keep these thoughts/ideas active in your head most of the time.

A simple touch.

A note or a text saying "I love you".

A warm, clear sunny day.

A bowl of your favorite ice cream.

An encouraging word from someone.

An unexpected phone call from a friend.

A real, handwritten letter instead of an email.

An unexpected visit from a friend. (Yes, instead of calling first).

ha - you know I didn't mean size. Small events in sense of being more common.
