For four months, I've been having to grasp the edge of the heavy steel door or stick my finger in the hole where the door handle used to be in order to open it.
For four months, the door had never been fully closed, so that people could easily open it. It was probably opened and closed several hundred times a day for four months...
People have moved in, people have moved out.
Contractors have been in to check the lights, to clean the building, to repair the plumbing, but nothing has been done about the broken door handle... Until today.
It's not the right type of handle. It's not a repair on the door to restore it to new condition...
It's a "band-aid" fix. But at least I can open the door, and I appreciate it so much more than I thought I would.
No more worries about pinching fingers or getting smacked in the face by someone coming out while you're trying to get a grip on the edge of the door.
A simple handle. A little thing.
"What is easy to do, is easy not to do" - Jim Rohn
What in your life needs repair? What little thing could you do today to make it better everyday? What little thing annoys you just a little each day? A squeaky hinge? A burnt out bulb?
Find that little thing, and fix it.
Appreciate the little things.
You'll feel better.
