Basics are Not Always Easy

Appreciation is a wonderful thing: It makes what is excellent in others belong to us as well.

Voltaire

This really stood out to me today. The basics are not always easy to do. What may seem like a simple task to some, can feel like a mountain to others. This is why it’s important to me to show gratitude for the little efforts people do.

I may be a little too grateful for little efforts but to be completely honest, there are some days when common decency is hard af for me. (It’s my loss when I can’t find it in me to be a decent human but we all have our moments.) On those days Appreciation can really change someone’s attitude. And showing appreciation is free!

What little thing did you appreciate today?

When asked what she wants to teach the world she replied, "Don't stop searching. Too many times, in my old life, I put my search aside for more 'important matters.' I didn't realize it was the search that held what was most important; curiosity." Saschia works daily on improving her craft and at times can get down on herself, but her favorite morning mantra is "It's a new day." and that's what she strives to start with.
