Thankful for the little things

I feel so blessed for all of the creature comforts that I have which make my days a little lighter. The loftiness of a freshly fluffed pillow, the envelopment of soft pajamas, the scent of hot coffee or tea…all of these little things that I know I typically take for granted are so precious.

Yesterday, I started some “spring cleaning” a little early. A big part of that was rearranging and sorting books. I’m so thankful for these old friends, even when I’m not reading them, there are joyful to have around. It calls to mind that I should deep clean and move things around more often. I should be caring for the little things that bring care for me. When the time comes I will set them free so they can care for others.
