“Enjoy the little things in life, because one day you will look back, and realize they were the big things".

Its the little things that really matter. I was washing my hair today and realized i had forgotten to be joyful. I was always complaining and was always angry that i had fogotten what it was like to relax and smile. I started to sing (i had forgotten that too!)and i felt this warmth in my heart. Then it hit me!

I realized what made me really joyful were not the big things of life like money, cars, houses and all that, yes, they are important but small things gave me joy like washing my hair, singing while doing chores, helping people.

Those things were what made me fulfilled.

Joy isn’t like happiness which is based upon happenings or whether things are going well or not. No, joy remains even amidst the suffering. Joy is not happiness.

Find Joy in your everyday life.

Breathe, relax, talk a walk, watch your children, watch a movie, sing, dance, forget about all the big stuff sometimes. Live the moment. Don't allow anything and anyone steal your joy!

Remember there's nothing that can take your joy away if you don't permit your joy to be taken away..
