The Little Things {lately}


I've taken a step back from the web these last couple of days, for some fresh air.  I have been feeling so frazzled lately and spread thin that I believe it is negatively affecting my productivity and inspiration.  It has even been a bit depressing.

So today's little things are short and simple:

Standing under an umbrella in the rain with my daughter, waiting for the bus. 
It's quiet and peaceful in the rain. 
A quick stop at Starbucks and five quiet minutes while waiting for my coffee.
Morning reading and writing time--it is changing the course of my days.
Hugs.
Kisses.
Letters from other writers.
How settled my heart feels with prayer.

Here's to the little things this day,

I need to follow your example and just stop and enjoy the quiet for a little bit. :) So good for everyone to do occasionally. Thanks for the reminder.

Is it funny I actually came back to my blog to feel less frazzled? Hope you are doing well!! xoxo

“You must write every single day of your life... You must lurk in libraries and climb the stacks like ladders to sniff books like perfumes and wear books like hats upon your crazy heads... may you be in love every day for the next 20,000 days. And out of that love, remake a world.” ― Ray Bradbury
