Happy Monday, candle friends! Yesterday, my Sunday was so full and busy that I didn’t get the chance to sit down and write my reflections like I usually do. But you know what? That’s okay. Life doesn’t always go as planned, and sometimes, the best moments happen when we let go of the schedule and just live.
The truth is, I think I forgot to write because I was so caught up in enjoying the little things.
I felt the warmth of the sun on my face, even in the chill of winter. I marveled at the beauty of the snow-covered ground, sparkling like a million tiny diamonds. I made a list of all the books I want to read this year (and discovered a new author I absolutely adore). I wrapped myself in a cozy blanket by the fire and just breathed.
And it hit me—these “little things” aren’t so little after all. They’re the moments that make up a life. They’re the memories that stay with us, the ones we look back on and smile about.
So, this week, I want to encourage you to slow down and savor the little moments. Watch the sunrise. Laugh with a friend. Take a deep breath of fresh air. Write down your dreams. These moments may seem small, but they’re the threads that weave the fabric of a beautiful, meaningful life.
Here’s to finding joy in the little things—and realizing they’re actually the big things
💛 Christiana
