I wonder if more people saw the "little" things this way, would they be happier, more content with their everyday lives, more in the moment? I'm not an expert but I think so.

The Little Things
I found this quote in Patti Digh's book Creative is a Verb and it really is a great reminder to enjoy what we have and not expect all moments to be momentous ones. "Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize that they were the big things," by Robert Brault. An eye opener for sure especially something we should pass on to our children, you know when they're bored or only are happy when huge things are happening. Some of the little things that I am so thankful for and KNOW that they are the big things in my life: reading a picture book with my nine-year-old daughter, singing screaming really loudly to Lady Gaga in the car with my husband and daughter, baking moon dust cookies together even though I pretty much hate baking, touching her soft cheeks as she sleeps at night.
I wonder if more people saw the "little" things this way, would they be happier, more content with their everyday lives, more in the moment? I'm not an expert but I think so.
