Little things mean a lot!

last week i took notice of a few things - small they may be, but these small things actually make a big difference:

• my neighbour offered to cook me a meal when i had migraine
• as i was leaving for work in a hurry a friend packed me a sandwich for breakfast
• someone offered me their seat on a crowded underground train (added bonus: it was rush hour!)
• i paused to eat a meal outside my workplace in silence
• i offered my seat in the bus to an elderly man
• i saved some of my dinner to share with my flatmate
• from across the atlantic, i received a beautiful letter from an old friend (a real letter, sent by real post!!! yes, they still exist!)
• i smiled broadly at the bus driver and said 'thank you' at the end of the journey
• the taxi driver wanted to talk about his life - and i really REALLY listened - and he thanked me from his heart.

for all these little blessings, i am very grateful.
