Five little things that really matter!

Little things in life can transform a gloomy day into one that makes life worth living. A pat on the back is sometimes way more difficult to get than a Vera Moda gown. Appreciating the things that can brighten our day is a great way to move forward. Yes, we all have our worries but watch out for these small things and life would seem beautiful, for every sunset is followed by the sunrise.

1. Knowing you are the reason behind someone else's smile There's no bigger pleasure in the world than reversing a frown on someone's face. Not only does it make you happier, it ensures that there's enough endorphins in the air. Sadly, in today's world, a smile has become a luxury that not many people can afford!

2. Watching the beauty of Nature We've always watched the trees, the sun, the moon et al. around us. But the day we start consciously noticing the beauty in these little things around us, we've started appreciating our creator's masterpieces. Watching a sunrise or sunset sitting on the beach with water kissing your feet or watching a rainbow smile onto you adding some colour all around can really make your day.

3. Having a perfect moment and having it perfectly captured There are very few times in life that things fall in place exactly the way we want. Be it a promotion, a propasal or just a random moment that we've been waiting for. Having it perfectly captured for us to re-live that moment more than a hundred times after it's gone is truly special. No wonder, the photographers at weddings and occassions charge us a bomb!

4. Getting complimented when you least expect it Who doesn't like compliments? Getting one when we least expect it can really make our day. Something as simple as "Nice shirt" or "You really made my day" can do a world of good to us. So, next time, don't be stingy on giving those compliments!

5. Spending time with the people who make life worth living There are loads of people around, but a few really make life worth living. We miss the water when wells go dry. And we miss our dear ones when they are no longer around. Making them feel loved when they are with us or gifting them a small token of love for keeping us going to achieve more can be a great way to show them how much they mean to us.
