Small wonders

It's a common theme in my life that it is usually the small things that excite me or make me smile so deeply that I feel the joy in every part of my body.

This morning I was walking to work, and decided at the last moment to go and get a coffee so detoured through Parliament lawns.

It was on this short detour that I saw some mushrooms growing out of a tree above my head. I love fungi and just knowing that they're there, so close that I can see them from my window now just brings on one of those deep smiles.

As does the fact I can type a blog message, including photos, on my iPhone in the time it takes my work computer to start up and log me in.

Small wonders.
