Envisioning Vocations

The Little Things

It's the Little Things

The laugh of an elder,

The joy in a toddler

The thanks of a stranger

Encouraged by an act of being funny

Or helpful

People may not think much of the things they do

Because they stay in the blue with what they can do

Of the little things they do in a day

That can take someone else's pain away

But from helping others all I can say

Is that the joy on their faces brings me grace

Taking the time to be nice

Brings so many people a big surprise

Vocation is hard to find

But it is supposed to make one shine

It is a struggle

A selfless hustle

For others to enhance a better life

My effort is to change someone's life

Even if only for a little while

Simple actions are what bring out the smiles

Telling a joke, bringing kids toys, helping the broke

Things that do not seem like they matter

Proceed to make joy scatter

Life is all about those simple moments

That are made in a little while

That make people smile

Its those Little Things, that make life worthwhile
