It's the little things that make up the overall picture of the day!

Our days are like one of those mosiac images - a picture made up of hundreds of tiny images which, when viewed from a distance, give an overall view of a different picture. It's a series of moments, of tiny actions or events, that create the overall impression of our day. So even if there is a bad moment - an argument, an annoying email or phone call, a red light - the overall colour of the day may still be bright!

So today, I had some wonderful moments:
  • Rachana, one of my wonderful team members that I have the honour of working with, came top of her class in her Masters results;
  • Lata, one of the fantastic girls at Bal Mandir, was in a giggly, happy mood, putting a smile on everyone's faces with her joy at the simple pleasure of having ribbons gently run over her face;
  • Nimu, my daughter, was so excited to have pizza at our favourite restaurant, Fire and Ice.
All of these gave a wonderful positive tone to my day. Sure, there were a few frustrations, but they gave balance to the bright spots, highlighting the wonderful.

So next time you miss a parking spot or your coffee is cold, remember it's only one small moment that contributed to the mosaic of your day. Don't let it become the complete picture - keep it as a balancing tool for highlighting the fantastic moments.

Enjoy and be happy, healthy and have fun always,
