What happens when we stop to smell.

This morning I took my morning coffee, that I'm trying to wean myself off, and walked to Tim's house to gift him some garden grown arugula. In my path were two women and a gentleman in a wheelchair. One lady had lavender in her hand and a smile on her face. The other was bent over a rose. Our dear old man was preoccupied with the rosemary bushes. He was rubbing some between his fingers and bent over smelling what remained on the bush.
I greeted them and complimented their morning adventure.
I didn't get half a block before a sudden burst of laughter exploded from the trio. The sound of voices chattering and laughing echoed harmoniously for the next 2 blocks.

Be here now and enjoy the small stuff.
