"The best things in life are nearest: breath in your nostrils, light in your eyes, flowers at your feet, duties at your hand, the path of right just before you. Then do not grasp at the stars, but do life's plain, common work as it comes, certain that daily duties and daily bread are the sweetest things in life." Robert Louis Stevenson


I just read this quote this morning and I thought it was worth keeping. The 'daily duties' of life most often feel like a daily grind rather than something to feel thankful for. But it's all in how you look at it, I guess. We are blessed and it's good to be reminded every so often.
