Don't forget to live a little sometimes....

Slow down very often and appreciate the small things !

We often get caught up in life by thinking of the bigger picture and running ourselves ragged trying to fit as much as we can into one day. But how often do we truly stop and appreciate the little things?

Your memories aren't big things, they're a million little things!

The morning tea, the 10 minutes before sunrise in the quiet on a work day, the small evening walk, laughing on stupid meaningless jokes... it's these simple pleasures that bring balance to our busy lives and remind us that we don't always need to be perfect or constantly busy in order to live a full, happy life that we're proud of.

Believe it or not, the whole world probably won’t come crashing down around you if you decide to take a bit of time off. It got on perfectly well without your input for billions of years, and will probably be able to manage on its own if your cellphone is switched off for a few hours. Save at least a bit of it for yourself. Burn that bit up by having some fun and remembering how great it is simply to be alive.
