Such a simple phrase, but the reality is simply that the little things amount to a whole lot.
I am priveleged to connect with a wide range of friends through Twitter. Some, I may see in my lifetime, others, I may never come across @cherylsmith999, or Cheryl Smith of CultureSmith Consulting is one of those friends who I deeply respect.
When Cheryl sought help with one of her posts, I gladly obliged by offering my suggestion via Twitter. She approved and I jokingly told her I charged royalty fees. For every click I should receive 10 cents. It was a simple joke, but weeks later I get a card from her with a personalized message and two coins attached to the card. I laughed thinking of a friend who took the time to remember my joke, and then send me a card.
Think about how you communicate with those you've become friends with. Could we not all learn from something as simple as a card in the mail?
Because ultimately, "it's the little things" that mater most, is it not?

I remember the "little things" from many people: a handwritten note, well-timed visit or phone call, just the right questions about my family. In reality, the little things are what matter - day in and day out.
Your post is reminding me to be intentional today, with a few little things with the people who matter most in my life - my family. I'll let you know how it goes.
