It's those "little" things.....

Okay once again my wheels were turning and the random thoughts coalesced into a stream of what made me smile, cry, sigh in exasperation, laugh out loud or mutter curse words under my breath if not shout them loudly at the top of my lungs...

I will put it all together with pictures to share what emotion went with each happening that caused it when I publish these posts.If you have anything to add please feel free to share your own emotional responses to certain events or happenings in your own life in words or even a link to something you had a reaction to...

In South Texas pastures these pepper bushes grow wild. My grandparents property allowed me to transplant one about 6 years ago and pot it at the home we lost to Wildfires over Labor Day weekend. My plants outside and inside of course were lost and so was one of my precious memories of picking Chili peppers off the plant for years for my Dad to put them up in vinegar for him to use to sprinkle on his food at mealtimes.

 

When I found this plant in our backyard growing wild at our new home it brought tears to my eyes of sheer delight. My Dad is no longer with me but this little pepper bush has brought him closer again with just remembering how much he loved to eat these hot little wild peppers and am going to do my best to keep the plant alive this winter so next year can pick some peppers for us to use in Chili and when we burn our mouths cry all over again from the heat!

So what "little things" stir your emotions? What makes you happy, sad, glad or indifferent?
