“Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself, in your way of thinking.” - Marcus Aurelius Have you ever noticed how it's the little things in life that bring us the most happiness? It's important to remember that the little things in life can make a big difference. Most of them cost nothing but are invaluable - the small actions, events, and gestures are the jewels for a fulfilled life because they can have a big impact on our lives, even if we don't always realize it.
Life is full of ups and downs. During an up period you can indeed enjoy all the beauty around you. And in a down period you should strive to reach the previous period again. In short, Sanja's story is completely correct.
“Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself, in your way of thinking.” - Marcus Aurelius This is inspirational, simple and so true AND yet such a challenge for our busy human brains. This is the sort of essay/article to read again and again over a week and I think I will notice something different each time. Thank you for collating these words.
My pleasure. Marcus Aurelius was a wise man. I also love this quote "The things you think about determine the quality of your mind. Your soul takes on the color of your thought." (It's on the Food for Thought page.) I'm working on an article about him. He needed few words to provide people with food for thought.

As you say, it is indeed in the difficult moments that (enjoying) the little things can make a big difference.
