Happiness consists more in small conveniences or pleasures that occur every day, than in great pieces of good fortune that happen but seldom.
(Benjamin Franklin)

How very true! 🌿
Thanks, Michelle! Have a wonderful weekend! 😄
small moments are gems to be treasured until death parts us from them…
So true. Except that I believe life and families can go on for eternities.
When I first read the quote I thought it would be s modern author (or even you) and it was good ol Ben Franklin – wow – timeless advice
The aha. Moments or big things in life do Make life rich – and are needed – but oh to the small things each day! Amen
