Take the Time…Now
Don’t wait for the big things in life, for soon you’ll be there with all the things you’ve been waiting for and realize they don’t matter that much. And the people who had mattered are gone from your life now. You’ll realize that you’ve missed out on a whole bunch of events, times, special memories, and people that were way more important…you just didn’t take the time to notice them.
You passed them by on your way to the “Big things” never noticing that small chin trembling, that phone call unnoticed, that friend who needs someone to listen to them, that email unanswered, the one person who needs a big hug and an encouraging word.
Don’t wait…realize who and what’s important. Be there for your friends who need you, call that person back, take the time to be with your family, make special memories, have conversations over hot chocolate.
Make the most of every day, because when you look back one day you’ll see and remember all of the “little and seemingly unimportant” things that had happened and you’ll know…they truly are the “big and most important” things in life.
“Enjoy the little things in life… for one day you’ll look back and realize they were the big things.” ~Unknown

Wow, If I could take that to heart my life would be a better place for me to live! We were talking about that over Christmas and the sad thing is that some people think that the bigger things are indeed the better things! You keep going in that direction and focus on those important things of life they will not only make a difference in your but you will be the one shaping the lives of those around you!
