Have you ever thought about all the little things we take for granted or that make you smile? I've been thinking about that today and was reminded of how these little things in life fill in around the cracks of disappointment, complacency or dissatisfaction. Here are some of my favorite things that made it to my mental list:
1. New glass tupperware. Yep - bpa free, locking lids to prevent leakage. So awesome after having crappy plastic ware!
2. When strangers smile at you in a store
3. Unexpected but gratefully received visits from friends
4. Neighbors that water your plants for you while you're out of town
5. The neighbors dog that howls like a wolf when the police sirens go off
6. My husband who told me to go buy a painting I've had my eye on
7. My memory foam mattress after sleeping on a hide-a-bed for a week
8. Knowing that you cheered someone up by paying them a visit
I could go on!!! With a cluttered mind, it's easy to forget some of these precious gifts that are often forgotten, since they are seemingly small. What are some of your favorite things?
