Sometimes we find ourselves so preoccupied with all that's happening around us we tend to forget to appreciate everyone and everything. Whether you are so busy at work you forget to mention to your family that you love them, or as a college student you forget to call and check in with your parents. Occasionally we may also forget to let our Heavenly Father know that we are thankful for wherever we are in life - even if that means being stuck at your 9-5 or pulling an all-nighter in the library. It's important that when you see the following items you take a moment to just breathe, thank Him, and always remember that He is there.

1. Someone holding the door for you.

Someone took a little extra time out of their day just to be courteous to you. Or if someone didn't hold the door open for you, hold the door open for someone else. Being a decent person is free and feels good.

2. The next time someone makes you angry.

Not every situation requires a reaction. Sometimes you have to remember that God is testing you. Use that moment to be the bigger person and learn to just walk away. Ask God to allow you to see people the way that He sees them.

3. The smiles of your siblings.

There's nothing like coming home and seeing the smiles of your siblings. Something about just being able to joke around and laugh with them can help ease any pain that you're going through.

4. A nice cup of coffee.

There's just something about a fresh cup of coffee that seems to brighten everyone's day.

5. Your comfort food.

Even if your day was crappy just remember that food fixes everything.

6. The Sunset.

There's nothing like watching a beautiful sunset. Whether you're in the car, on your way home, or stuck in class, daydreaming out the window, take a second to just appreciate how beautiful His work is.
