the little things-
often unnoticed,
not often promoted,
yet with a moment unfocused, the little things that were once coated in closeness revealed their true diagnosis.
covered by familiarity, the effort to appreciate these little things lost priority.
with too full of a plate these things that once held my heart in fixated captivity lost their authority and integrated into everyday obscurity.
these everyday little things-
often deflated by complacency,
not often missed,
until taken suddenly, as is time’s speciality.
things that existed and persisted i now take to heart as i chose to take part in this journey in which i have faithfully enlisted.
these everyday little things,
i can now see.
…from exploring gigantic sequoia trees to admiring tiny honey bees.
…from riding down streets endlessly, sitting on sofas carefree, communing at panini, studying the Word with the Lees, plus morning drinks of thai tea-
all of these little things done in love with those i love are the memories i will carry when i am overseas.
the little things…
geez.
i had no idea how much they mean to me.
