I bought new red balloon stamps celebrating the Chinese New Year recently. I was so excited. They are beautiful. Now, paying my bills will make me smile!
How often do you really appreciate the little things?
- A call from an old friend or meeting a new one
- A pretty garden
- A clear night to see the stars
- Finding a penny
- Pink tulips in the winter
- Verbena hand lotion
- Peppermint ice cream (in January)
Little things can make our day. They put a spring in our step or make us smile inside. This energy transforms us and our interactions. It puts us in a better mood and we are more patient, tolerant and kind.
Slowing down to notice these things will actually fortify you and your busy life. Yes, you do have time to stop and smell the roses!
