"The simple things are also the most extraordinary things, and only the wise see them." (found on Pinterest)
This year I decided to record the simple but special moments that happen each day. I thought it would be a good reminder of what is important and what makes me smile or laugh or think or cry throughout the year. The days go by so quickly and I believe it is important to find ways to help them to slow down and this is one that is working for me.
This habit has helped me to remember that it is the simple things that bring me happiness. If I only wait for the big moments (and I do hope to experience them) I will be missing so much of what is important. It is the laughter of friends, the sounds of the voices of loved ones, the simple questions of concern and caring that matter to me. It's the sunlight on the kitchen table, a beautiful sky, or the flowers that I never thought would grow beginning to thrive.
Yesterday was a very ordinary day. No great highs, no great lows and to be honest I was not really looking for a special moment. But it found me. As I went to turn out the lights to go to bed, I took one last look at the newly organized pantry and feel a moment of great satisfaction. It was a simple but special moment that I'm not sure I would have recognized if it had not been for my greater appreciation of the simple but very special things that happen throughout the day.
I hope that you will join me in appreciating the simple things each day. It truly makes each and every day special.
