Ever notice, when you're having a bad day, sometimes the smallest things can change your whole outlook? A smile from a stranger, the light turning green as you reach the intersection, hearing a little kid giggling, your dog meeting you at the door or just standing in a patch of sunlight on a cloudy day.
I've finally learned to pay attention to the little things. Appreciating life's small joys has made dealing with the larger disappointments so much easier. It's amazing how much difference a call from a friend or a hug from one of the kids can make. Often, they don't even realize how much their actions affect me. So now I wonder, how many small things do I do in a day that make someone else feel better?
Enough, I hope.
