Today I am reminded of the beauty of small gifts.  A while ago a friend gave me a small potted plant of cuban oregano.  I’ve been rushing around lately so while I usually remember to water the herb — thank goodness, it is a succulent — I hadn’t really paid attention to the little patch of expanding greenery.  But this morning, feeling a little pokey and thus moving slower, I leaned over and pressed my nose close.  And what did I discover?  The sweetest scent, of course, one that brought a smile to my face…and immediately brightened my day.  😉
