Ever take time to forget about the big picture for a while and look at all the little pictures along the way? Sometimes the focus is so tunnelled that one forgets to be grateful for the small things in life. With patience comes appreciation and the ability to take a step back and say, "thank you" for simply taking your next breath, opening your eyes, activity of limbs, etc..The inability to recognize the little things can be hurtful to a friend or loved one, so one must remember to say thank you even at the smallest things. In most cases, the little things mean the most.
