Inspirational Thoughts – Small Intention, Huge Happiness

These inspirational thoughts are for you if you would like a little extra happiness in your day. How so?

Let me tell you about Ben.

Ben is four years old with big green eyes, short straight brown hair, and a huge dimple when he smiles. He loves his puppy, his fresh new haircut, his talking Spiderman shirt, and his big brother Nick.

How do I know? Ben told me all these things after he introduced himself to me as I watched my youngest son play football. Ben’s brother was playing as well.

He wanted me to know that he was “a little shy.” I listened patiently for fifteen minutes until Ben decided he had enough and disappeared.

Not five minutes later, he returned.

“Here……. these are for you,” he grinned delightedly, standing proudly as he handed me three of the teeniest dandelions I’ve ever seen. The wind was blowing so most of the featherly stuff had blown away.

He gave me a huge smile as I said, “thank you.” He stood there and watched as I placed what was left of the dandelions into the pin on my jacket.

I felt good that this little guy thought enough of me to want to give me something. I smiled – my day instantly brighter.

Ben, on the other hand, skipped away happy.

What does Ben’s actions have to do with you? You can follow Ben’s example. He reminds the importance of how showing a little kindness to others can make someone’s day. In turn, you feel a little happier from the good feelings you generate.

Do something small for someone else and feel the sunshine. It’ll warm your day.
