Do you take time to appreciate the simple joys in life? Do you smile at the sun or dance in the rain? Do you stop to smell a flower on a bush? Do you gaze at the star-studded sky or watch the birds fly? Do you take time to coo at an infant, or to watch puppies or kittens at play? Are you thankful for the air you breathe and the life you have been given? Most of all, do you ever take time to marvel in the profound fact that, of all the infinite possibilities in the Universe, God chose to create YOU?
Many of us fail to notice the little things that make life so sweet. We get caught up in the pursuit of "wealth and health, and name and fame, and all of that noise." In this ad-mad world that promotes the idea "bigger is better," it is so easy to forget to take time to appreciate the simple joys, the little gifts that life gives to us each and every day. Simple joys gives you a reason to smile when life gets tough. No moment, nothing in life, should be taken for granted. In developing gratitude for the simple joys, the little things in life, we come to truly enjoy and appreciate life - and then we are able to see the magic that surrounds us every moment.

Well I think 'simple joy' does not exist at all. How will one define 'simple joys' or 'little things in life?' Well happiness (joy) is happiness. It cannot be simple or complex (great). Either one could be happy or unhappy and the things which can give you happiness cannot be small things. Whatever gives you happiness is great for you and what makes you unhappy is not.
thanks for ur comment but i disagree with u...simple joys according to me are the little joys u derive from things that others tend to ignore on a daily basis....watching my son smiling is a great joy for me but others may take it for granted....it is these simple things that gives u a reason to smile and makes life worth living...so one should take time to enjoy the creations of god...
