Giving Small Details.
A painting student was finishing his painting work, when he was approached by his painting teacher and for a while after observing he asked the student for the palette and brushes, with great dexterity he gave a few strokes here and there. When the teacher returned the brushes to the student, the painting had changed remarkably. The student was astonished, before his very eyes the work had gone from mediocre, so to speak, to something sublime. Almost with reverence the student said to the teacher: "teacher, how is it possible that with a few touches, with a few simple details this painting has changed so much?" and the teacher replied "it is in those small details that art lies". This story that I am telling you makes me think about today's content. If we look at things more slowly and analyze, we realize that everything in life is details. The big events have dazzled us so much that sometimes it prevents us from seeing those small miracles that surround us every day. Simple examples such as a little bird singing in a tree, in the garden, looking at a flower, taking a picture, a child who comes and hugs us with the most sincere embrace, these are examples of details that when added together make a difference in the existence of each one of us.
All relationships, family, marriage, partnership, courtship, friendship are based on details, maybe you can't make it up by doing very big things, titanic, but probably you can do small details that make a difference. There will be moments that you may not have to give a good gift, but a good word, a good prayer, a strong hug will also make a difference. No one is asking you in this content to do difficult or almost impossible things, to prove friendship you don't need that, but you can start giving small details. There are those who spend their time waiting for an opportunity to show their love for someone, but you know what is sad, the sad thing is that while waiting for that great opportunity they miss many others, which are small, which are simple, which are modest, but which are significant. Life can go by without the other person receiving that little something from you.
Sometimes we think that if we win the lottery it would be the best, I win the lottery and I'm happy! it may be a majestic fact, yes, it can change your life but that is not true because it is not full of joy, money is not happiness, in truth happiness is secured in small things, in details that are seasoned day by day, are those details that we put that give that color to the existence of each of us, so today in this content I want to say: do not be fooled too easily by things that are apparently beautiful, but the simple things we can not dismiss, those little things, I repeat that flower, that little bird, a text message, a pat on the shoulder, a word of encouragement, a sincere hug, all that may seem little but it will never be insignificant, never, never will be insignificant.
Today I want to tell you in this content that please don't forget you and I make the difference. Let's go out to surprise, to impact the world, let's thank God for the wonderful things he has done in the world to fill each of our existence with small details. Sometimes we have thought that happiness is like winning the lottery, I win the lottery and I am happy!... but that is not true because it is not full of joy. In truth, happiness is based on little things. Let's surround ourselves with those little things, I invite you to just look for a moment, feel, appreciate those details that will make us feel that we are happy. Have you ever thought about giving small details to your loved ones? I invite you not to think about it for a long time, do not miss that opportunity of happiness with the people you love. Happy beginning of the year 2022, I wish you all the wonderful things in life, those happy moments surrounded by small details. Happy new year to all my followers and sponsors, I appreciate the detail that you are still here with me. You are the best. Pictures from: Unsplash.com

Happiness is in the simplest things. And the little things are the ones that touch my heart the quickest. And I agree that we should not miss the opportunity to give small gifts to those we love whenever we can; life is unpredictable, and better not to waste the opportunities we have to show our affection. Happy New Year, and my best wishes to you in 2022!

My prayer everyday is to be able to embrace a simple life, to not be attached to worldly things, but rather to live in the moment, treasuring like you said the little things which unbeknownst to us impact people, even ourselves, in huge ways. A blessed 2022 to you, my friend. And thank you for the reminder.
