I’ve been in quite a good mood over the last few weeks. Since Easter, actually. It’s a long story, which I won’t go into that much – don’t want to bore you guys with my personal life.
There is something I want to point out, though. What cheered me up was when, on Easter, a friend of mine asked me if I was okay, because I didn’t look that happy the day before. And what made it even more amazing was that we had barely talked the day before. We merely passed each other and said “hi”.
But she noticed the little signs that I was down. And she cared enough to ask. That alone meant a lot to me.
I think you guys can see where I’m going with this. Noticing and caring about the little things can mean a lot. It’s the little things that are significant.
Do you notice the little things about those around you? Just by doing that, you can make a difference in someone’s life.
It's funny that you mention this, because I've just started randomly waving at people in the hallways. I wave at anyone who looks even slightly depressed. All of the time. I look highly idiotic, but everyone–even if they're really depressed at first–smiles and laughs, and I've instantly brightened their day. Plus, I've made some new friends and had some pretty interesting conversations this way. 🙂
