Do you ever notice the little things, the small moments, the details in life? This months challenge is to do just that, pay attention to the tiny details. Sometimes the small things become emblematic for something larger.

I found this qoute and I think is very great for this challenge ,I also love the colors this month

Let's not forget that the little emotions are the great captains of our lives and we obey them without realizing it ...........
