The Little Things...

Inspired by Frank's latest note...

"Enjoy the little things in life, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things." A work in progress.

Once when I was talking with someone about my unsuccessful and frustrating search for meaning, they told me that perhaps I was looking for something too big. Maybe meaning comes from lots of little things, rather than one, big, profound discovery.

two Sitting on the front porch at night time breathing in the air.
