Everyday miracles

Every once in a while ~ your prayers get answered or life throws you a bone ~ however you choose to look at it. Well, yesterday was one of those days for me and I am so very grateful for this bittersweet symphony that is my life!

. . . the little things

It's easy to forget how good it feels just to walk in the park on a sunny day, to get a card from an old friend or have a great conversation with your grandmother over tea. As we grow older and we witness loved ones suffer illnesses or pass away, its hard not to realize just being able to go out for a picnic or enjoy your favorite food can be a luxury for one who can not.  We won't always be able to do those little things we take for granted. So enjoy those little things ~ because when we can't do them any longer ~ they'll seem much bigger.
