We are all eligible for life's small pleasures
a pat on the back.......a rainbow across the sky......the laughter of good friends......an empty parking space........cherry blossoms.......licking the beaters.......a pair of warm hazel eyes......a cup of hot tea......a child learning her ABC's.....watching a robin build her nest
Enjoy life's tiny delights........there are plenty for all of us

Only he who gives thanks for the little things receives the big things.

Very wise words...so I should enjoy my fresh 5 inches of snow,lol!
I love this. I think the tiny delights are what life is all about. And licking the beaters brings back memories of my childhood. When my girls hear it...they come running! :)
So true, Koralee! It's about living in the moment. When we live in the moment we notice the little things more and these turn out to be the things that count! I like how you say we are all eligible for life's pleasures. These really are gifts that are available to each and every one of us. If only we all saw it that way!

p.s. poor Heidi though, I can't imagine having five inches of snow right now! Yikes!
Beautiful! And I want some egg beaters to lick now.....yes it is the little things.

Watching a bird build a nest is a rare pleasure to watch. So rewarding when it is then blessed with little eggs.

Absolutely beautiful and so very true. :)
I got an empty parking spot today at the mall...made me smile and it was a delight in my day!
How true. I saw the most beautiful rainbow yesterday and it brought me much joy.
Danielle
I have been watching a couple of purple finches build their nest. Yes, indeed, it's the litle things that money can't buy that are truly the most delightful!
Blessings!

OH I so get this...I pray for parking spaces ...& God honors this...I get to watch a family of birds invest in our bird house every year...The cherry blossoms are "ablooming" in the front yard of the house our kids just bought...and I am going...with my tea...right now to cozy on the couch with my lovey!
Thanks Koralee for the sweet reminder of the "little things".
Hope this finds you feeling a bit stronger & your back less sore!
Your posts would look great as a book!
Licking the beaters!!!! *raises hand* And *gasp* I let my toddler do it too.... But I would say, as the mother of a little girl learning her ABCs, there's nothing little about that one. It's one of the most amazing, most joyful thins to watch! I'm so blessed to witness this wonder. Lots of hugs, Koralee, and thank you for sharing the big and little joys with us. You're an inspiration.
Little things for me: It rained all day and 44 degrees, so I took my shower, changed into clean PAJAMAS and sewed all day while listening to the Renaissance Music podcasts (I think I spelled that wrong), with a fire going in the wood-stove and my three doggies curled around it. Lots of little things add up to a glorious day. Thank you for helping me count my blessings today. Love, Linda
Simply delightful!!!!
Oh, so true, thanks for reminding. So often I rush through the day without stopping to think about those little things. Love your posts, they make me smile. :)
A beautiful image! It is true, we all need to apprciate the little things more, there are so many good things around us if we really stop and think about them! Jenny x
Beautifully said my friend! Halleluyah for the little things in life!

...sharing blog comments, knowing that your friend is praying for you, laughing or getting a great recipe for macaroons...yes, these things and more are OURS as a gift from LIFE itself, and I am so happy to be a part of it dearest Koralee. How is your dear back today, my friend? I am still praying for you!!!!! LOVELY THOUGHTS as always my sweet....Anita
I am giving thanks for the little bit of spring we are finally seeing! :)
Wonderful post Koralee!
xo Catherine
very nice -- thank you :)
It was a delight coming here and reading this!
I try to enjoy everything, Koralee, big and small. Life is so short!
I could use some tiny delights. It's been a bit of a rough week. Thanks for spreading the cheer friend!
xo
thank you for this. I've been stressed lately and I'm trying to find joy in the little things.
I actually enjoy the little things more than the big ones...they are everywhere if you just are open to them! Hope you are having a great week!
Oh my goodness, whenever I have stopped by lately I just keep thinking about those big fluffy multi-pastel colored displays of cotton candy at Disneyland! I love this!
