The Little Things in Life

Over the past few months or so I have been trying to find happiness in the little things of everyday. Lets be honest here, who doesn't love the little things in life? The little things in life are what seem to give meaning to life. The simplest thing can turn your whole day around. For example, I have been volunteering at the family support and treatment center and there is a little girl there who follows me everywhere. Today she gave me a purple bracelet and told me she brought it with her today because she knew I would be there. This simple act absolutely made my day. Even something as easy as driving in the car and your favorite song coming on the radio can change the way your day is going. You get the picture. In honor of the little things in life, here is a list of a few of the little things I have noticed.

The gentle snowfall in the morning
Silly things little kids say
Getting a good deal on something you have been wanting
Class getting cancelled
Jamba Juice
My favorite song on the radio
Sparking pomegranate lemonade
New lip gloss
Hot chocolate
Cookies
Funny texts
Inside jokes at work
Music that makes you happy

Noticing the little things really does make like more enjoyable
