Could someone explain Blogs to me...

Most of our lives will be spent taking care of the little, unimportant tasks that come up, not discovering the nature of the meaning of life.  If the little stuff is beneath us, we're going to be spending a lot of time bored and uninvolved.  That sets the stage for depression and other nasty conditions.  Even if it doesn't *really* matter, shouldn't we allow the small stuff to matter at least to us while we're living it?

I've come to believe that the little things truly are important. The big things kind of take care of themselves because there is no choice but to handle them. The little things are what can make or break a day and can drive you nuts. How many times have you had to deal with some major thing and you find yourself blowing up over some little, otherwise inconsequential, detail that goes wrong. The little things are like the woodpecker and the tree, they just keep pecking away until they get under the skin, but they don't kill you. The little good things really turn the crank too. When you think about people that are important to you, it seems that the little things they do from day to day are what build the connection. It isn't some big thing that just suddenly makes them important to you.
