“Little drops of water,
Little grains of sand,
Make the mighty ocean
and the pleasant land.
Thus the little minutes,
Humble though they be,
Make the mighty ages
Of eternity.”
― Julia Abigail Fletcher Carney
I was listening to the song “Little Things” by One Direction on my way to work and I was reminded of two things: one, that often I overlook simple gestures that people do for me; and two, sometimes I fail to notice already the cute nuisances that people I love do to me.
Living a fast-paced and highly stressful life makes us so focused and unable to appreciate already these two simple yet important ‘little things’ and because of that, we are missing out on the happiness that they bring. We no longer realize that these small things are the ones that are making us get through every challenging day of our lives.
More than what the song says, I was reminded not to let these little things slip out of my heart and mind, as I should always acknowledge and show my appreciation to the people who do them for, and, to me.
