This is one of my all time favorites!
*Little Things* *It's little things in life that mean so much,* Like a card or a call, even a touch Ministers healing to someone in need. *Sharing God's love doesn't take a great deed!* It may be a song, it may be a smile, That brightens the day and makes it worthwhile- We just never know who's waiting somewhere, Needing to know that there's someone to care! It's not just the poor who need to be told That little things matter much more than gold- For houses and riches don't fill the bill, Like 'do unto others' everyday wil! So don't be consumed by living too fast, You might miss your moment, feeling aghast! Questioning, "Where did that little thing go, That I was to do to let my love show"? Go do it today, and do it with pride, No matter how small, you'll feel good inside- If you'll be faithful in all that you do, A crown of life will be waiting for you! D. S. Mullis Copyright .2008

Yes, it is the little things that count, the everyday kindnesses and gestures we do for others without expectation of what we will get in return. Thank you for this very nice poem.

Go do it today, and do it with pride
A crown of life will be waiting for you!"

Donna, I've been reading some of your poems and enjoying them. I'd like to pass this one on in my hometown. I'll send you a message on that. Among others, I share poetry with a group of seniors who attend a senior daycare. I think simple words with a good message make an impact on them.

Yes, it is in the little things that we do everyday that makes the world a better place, and for some of us, helps us remember WWJD. Thanks for this.
