Little Things

It's the little things that add up to feeling like a puzzle piece that has finally found its home.

There is nothing like finding love and friendship in someone with similar values, goals and interests. Exploring Seattle restaurants, running together (even up hills and in the freezing cold), talking (we can never get enough), reading, turning a collection of squash and pumpkins into soup, exploring nature and new places on foot and with our cameras ... it's the little things that fill our days and in the end make our lives so rich and full.

I am so thankful for beginnings, for joy and to be sharing all the little things with someone!

It reminds me to share a fabulous quote that was on a recent Thanksgiving card I received from a colleague:

At times our own light goes out and is rekindled by a spark from another person. Each of us has cause to think with deep gratitude of those who have lighted the flame within us. - Albert Schweitzer
