Thankful for a little…
“Give thanks for a little, and you will find a lot.”
A Hausa proverb from Nigeria
Some of life’s magical moments occur when we are thankful. I am not speaking of “Oh! Thank you for the flowers.” I mean the magical moment that happens when the tire on your car blows out while you are driving on the freeway and a good citizen stops to help you change the tire – in the rain.
There is something so special when a customer with three kids and a cart overloaded with groceries lets the customer with one item go ahead of them in the check out line. It is a small gesture. It is a little moment of thanks that has a ripple effect of impact. Giving thanks for a little makes the day a little brighter.
