I remember when I was a kid, and I finished my first can of coke, it was such a huge achievement! My sister reminded me of something, "there's victory at every level" We easily forget this and are burdened with unhappiness because we are constantly wanting that, instead of appreciating this. I have no beef with dreaming and wanting more, but don't make your happiness dependent on what you're yet to achieve. Enjoy the now. When I hear, appreciate/enjoy the little things, I hear appreciate the daily victories towards the bigger victories.
"For you created my inmost being, you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you, because I am fearfully and wonderfully made, your works are wonderful, I know that full well" "In terms of fashion, swim with the current, in terms of principal, stand like a rock" "Just being yourself, being who you are, is a successful rebellion"
