small can be BIG

The other day I was walking the dogs and while we waited for the light to turn green at the street corner, I saw a car drive by with a little boy in the backseat with the window rolled down. This cute little boy waved with a big smile on his face and said “Hi!” This small boy’s small action put the biggest smile on my face as I waved back and I noticed my mood had lifted a few notches.

At the same time, I remember being at a restaurant eating a wonderful meal but the waiter being in a bad mood and it made me not want to go back to that restaurant ever again.

Small gestures like giving a wave when the driver in the next lane lets you in, giving a smile to a stranger when you pass by on your walk, looking into the barista’s eyes as you pick up your coffee and saying “thank you” … could be big.

If you’re gonna do something small, let it be something that makes somebody’s day ❤︎
