So the small things came into their own: small acts of
helping others, if one could; small ways of making one's own life better: acts
of love, acts of tea, acts of laughter. Clever people might laugh at such
simplicity, but, she asked herself, what was their own solution?

Zebra Drive

It is the small things
That are the big thing
Random acts of kindness
Call them what you will
It is not so much the big gestures
But the little things
Done
Unheralded
Sometimes unnoticed
That reflect true love
It is not masses of flowers
Or boxes of candy
Jewelry
Or romantic dinners out that prove love
It is acts of coffee (or tea)
Acts of laughter
It is the picking up of dirty clothes
Putting down the toilet seat
It is listening at the end of the day
Or taking the dog for his walk
These are what make life better
More loving
These are the things
That
count
