The Little Things
November 13, 2011
It’s the little things,
They always say
Live out each moment
Of every day
And take the time
To wait, and listen
It’s hard to realize
What you’re missing
The little things matter
The little things grow
String them together
And they become whole
Our actions, our words
The ripples we make
They find their way back
Sheer chance or fate?
We become little things
We humble our hearts
Each day a new journey
Each day a fresh start
Be the change, be the song
Be alive, be the sound
But above all, just be
Make the little things count
