little things in life

here is a really interesting question that i came across recently.


when was the last time you enjoyed the little things in life?


when i see a question like this, i start to think, what exactly are the little things in my life?

the little things that matters to one person might not be the same compared to others. thats because everyone has their own life experiences and different point of views.

next time some a-hole cuts you off while driving and you feel like it's your duty to run him off the road and end his miserable existence... pause; take a breath; realize "ya know, i'm alive, and in good health" ... resume driving responsibly, because small twits on the road aren't worth big hassles.

when you're sitting on a bench with your friends or family and one of them can't keep from twitching their leg non-stop (restless leg syndrome), instead of fussing at them, just smile to yourself and think that it's damn good to have friends like them around even if their annoying habits piss you off once in a while.

ever looked up at the sky at night and think about how small we are in the vastness of space? have you ever just looked up and stared at the clouds for a few minutes just to enjoy the view and relax? when was the last time that you just sat down in front of a busy street, with people walking by, and thinking to your self "how lucky i am to be able to just sit and watch people and time go by" ... when was the last time you sat at the dinner table with your family and was just thankfull that everyone is safe and just enjoying the time together?


so when was the last time YOU enjoyed the little things in life?
