Being grateful for the small stuff

I was at the funeral today of a friend and colleague who passed way too early from cancer leaving behind a husband and two small kids.

It is a desperately sad situation with those two young kids' lives being altered drastically forever.

Her husband will never get to do the trivial, small things like make her a cup of tea or go to the supermarket together again.

Speaking to others who were there today it made us really grateful for these seemingly small, trivial daily routines.

I have heard acknowledging what we are grateful for, no matter how trivial can boost our well being. At times like this I can see their point. 

cheers
