These precious things


Our family had a braai on Saturday night. While toasting marshmallows over the coals, 
I was thinking about how happy the small things in life make me. 

The smell of a braai is unbeatable.

There was an occasional warm breeze, even though the temperature outside is getting chilly.

I saw my sister smile.

One of my dogs came up to me and kissed my cold toes.

My partner came over and rubbed my shoulders.

Enjoy the little things in life, because one day you will look back and realise that they were the big things.

Just for today.
