Today I am Thankful For (day 10)

Day 10

Today I am thankful for those small things in life that help take the sting out of the big things.

When some of the big stuff like too much month at the end of the money, the hurt of being alone, the pain you feel for someone else's problems threaten to overwhelm there are those small things that happen that remind us the big stuff ain't so big after all.  (how is that for a run on sentence)

The small things like hearing a child giggle, being in the grocery store and having someone you don't even know smile and say how are you.  Things like a friend dropping by unannounced, hearing a favorite song that you haven't heard in a while, a phone call that says I just had you on my mind and wanted to check on you.  Things like being told you are appreciated when you are feeling taken for granted.  Things like being reminded to stop and count your blessings.  When I begin to count my blessings the stresses seem to start sliding down to the bottom of the list.  When you realize that it is the small things that count anyway.  Have a wonderfully blessed day full of the small things that help get you through the day.
