With how fast our world moves, sometimes I forget to appreciate the little things in life that make me so happy. Big events in life surely make a large impact on how happy I am. But it's the small things in life, the everyday, seemingly insignificant things that I take for granted. I believe it's these things these truly give my life more color and joy.
