The Little Things Matter

The sun set into the West

And yellow leaves fell to the ground

The temperature kept dropping by the hour

And I felt the gust against my face.

I stood there, lonely and scared

I closed my eyes and thought

What's my next plan of action?

Is there any point of continuing?

When I had an epiphany,

So many people yet to meet, so many countries yet to visit

So many things to experience and so many jokes to laugh for

And then I opened my eyes wide.

As I came back to reality, realization dawned

One day we'll look back at the small things and realize how big they were

And how foolish we were not to figure that out

We only live once. Live it to your fullest.
