By noticing how small things can fill our
days with delight, we are more likely to experience the wonder of living. They are the everyday aspects of our lives
that bring us the most joy, even if at first it may seem natural to expect
our feelings of happiness to come from the larger events in our lives. By
noticing how small things can fill our days with delight, we are more likely
to experience the wonder of living. Once we take the time to look around and
witness the beauty, kindness, and laughter that envelop us, what may seem
like the ordinariness of the everyday becomes filled with the extraordinary
detail of each individual moment. If we bring this sense of awareness to our
lives for even a few minutes each day, we will begin to see just how blessed
we truly are. Beholding the joy that surrounds us may
initially seem easy, but for some it can take a conscious effort to make it a
part of a daily routine. When you awake in the morning and set the intention
to notice more joy in the world, watch how your day and, eventually, your
life are filled with more joy. The more we do this the more apt we will be to
notice the sounds of children laughing or the sparkle of dewdrops on a flower
petal. Allow this joy to fill your heart fully, and from there it will
naturally expand to your entire body and then spread to others, giving them
joy as well. Taking in the small joys of each day
expands our feeling of being connected with the world, especially once we
become more attuned to them. With each passing day, we will find that these
small delights, which bring a deeper level of appreciation for everything the
universe has given to our lives, are miracles. |
