Thankful for the little things

"Life is made up of small pleasures. Happiness is made up of those tiny successes.” ~Norman Lear

I always try to remember be thankful for the little things in life. I thank God when I make a green light. I thank God when I find something the first place I go to look for it. I try to remember to thank God for all the little tiny good things that happen during a day.

Being thankful for the little things helps me keep a positive attitude, even when something big goes wrong. In turn, keeping a positive attitude seems to make life easier. Of course, when life is easy it is easier to be thankful. The cycle continues and grows, but it starts with the little things.
