About This Quote
It’s the small things in life that make us happy. This wonderful little quote offers a great reminder to ourselves and to others. We all have good days and bad days, and we may get the impression that life is not worth living. But, when we get upset about something small, like an argument with a friend or a broken piece of equipment at work, we realize that there’s still a bright side to everything.
And it can be summed up in this little gem of wisdom: “There had to be something wrong with my life. I should have been born a Yugoslavian shepherd who looked up at the Big Dipper every night.”
