25 little things that aren't so little
Sometimes in life, all you need to do is look around at the little things to realise that they were the special moments all along.
Here’s my list of 25 little things that really aren’t so little:
- Ticking tasks off a to-do list
- “This song makes me think of you”
- Comfortable silence
- When the sun shines through the clouds after it’s rained
- Writing in a fresh book
- Laughing so hard your stomach hurts
- A hot cup of tea at night in winter
- Hearing “I’m proud of you”
- A smile from a stranger
- Reviewing your last month before starting the next (because reflection shows a lot)
- Chats about life at 2 am
- Sunrise/ Sunsets
- Warm days when it's been cold for so long
- Fairy/string lights
- A simple hello from a stranger on a walk
- Anything Christmas
- Spending quality time where phones are forgotten about
- “I love you”
- A fresh bunch of flowers
- Unlocking nostalgic memories
- When people actually listen to you when you’re speaking
- Handwritten letters/ notes
- “Let’s go get a sweet treat”
- A scent that holds thousands of memories
- The sound of rain when you don’t have to be anywhere
It’s these small, quiet moments that become the memories you’ll treasure later. We rush through life without realising how meaningful they truly are. Take a moment to look around and appreciate the little things, they're what will stay with you forever.
