Spontaneous joy

Every tiny moment is precious
Don't take any for granted
There's magic if you believe

Practice to stretch your imagination
See the beauty in everything common
Embracing the gems of simplicity

Chase away any negative shadow
Sunny thoughts will replace them
Satiating your heart with gratitude

Well said! When feeling down, get up and do something different. Find the joy in simple things. Are they truly simple or simply a gift from God!
