It’s the little things

It’s amazing how it’s the little things that tend to give you the greatest pleasure in life.

Not the big once in a lifetime events or trips, but an unexpected, unforeseen little thing.

Recently I was at a settlement meeting which was successful, and my client was delighted with the outcome.

Driving home in my car with rap music blaring and the successful outcome to a protracted, bitter dispute fresh in my mind I felt the greatest sense of happiness.

At that time, on that country road in North Kildare, with Jay Z, Nas, Kanye, turned up full blast, I felt a sense of happiness that would be hard to surpass.

And it was only a little thing, in the overall context of one’s life.

But I think it’s the little things.
