The Little Things

My journal excerpt from yesterday:


“It’s the little things. I say that all the time, and I mean it, but I always seem to forget that for me, the little things really matter. So, I got a little reminder of that from my neighbors this afternoon. It rained today, it rained hard. And when I went up to grab something from my room, I heard a giggle coming from outside. I looked out my window, and saw my neighbor’s little boy, butt naked, shampoo on his head, empty half of a milk carton in his hand, gathering rainwater as he danced and laughed and ran around the compound, sometimes dumping the water on his head but most of the times throwing it everywhere but. A rain shower. And an infectious giggle. It’s the little things.”
