My dear mother usedc to o tell me small little #stories at bedtime. They were so exciting that I used to ask many questions to her. Some questions she will answer other questions raised by me were never answered by my mother.
Below I am listing part of # the dialogue between me and my mother.
I said " Maa what all the big things you want to have in your life?
Maa "Dear child I do not want big things in life. I want little #moments that touch my soul for example. I want a little mansion situated in the middle of a natural #garden where I can sleep with my family and see my #children growing."
I said" Yes Maa. Mansion with neighboring trees where Sunrise to make us awake early in the morning"
Maa- I do not want well-maintained garden
I said " I love gardens where flowers, like us (children) grow freely.
Maa - In such a garden I could stop and #smell wildflowers at sunset time
I said, "Yes Mom in the garden we can listen to your stories in the winter season by sitting around a fire."
Mom - I want to spend moments full of love and joy among my family members, which touch my #heart and #soul
I said -"I was wondering maa, you do not want any #materialistic jewels for you."I
Mom - diamond jewels will give me and my family temporary pleasure, but the small joyful moments I wish to spend with you and #family may look like micro joys but are joy forever, for you and me.
I said" Mom your kids are so thankful to you for teaching us the art of expressing gratitude and contentment in our life. I will try my best to pass the same teachings to my kids"
The art of finding joy in little things is the practice of cultivating gratitude and contentment in one's life. People who actively seek out the positive aspects of one's surroundings and circumstances, no matter how small or seemingly insignificant are always on the road to success.
Are you in habit of finding little joy in your life?.Please continue doing so.
