This song has a lot of emotion at its roots.

Last year was nothing short of hell for me. The combined stress of a full-time job, attending college, and all the demands outside of those had me constantly on edge. During the latter portion of the year, I started suffering from actual mental breakdowns that would range from mild anxiety attacks to actual episodes where I'd suffer from a combination of full blown panic attacks, vertigo, and (on one occasion) loss of sensation in my lower legs and arms. There was probably only a handful of days each month where I actually felt completely happy and was able to relax.

So during the Christmas/New Years period of December, I started making drastic changes. I changed the shift at my job, changed my focus in educational/career pursuits and decided I was going to take control of my life.

The roots of this song took place a matter of a couple weeks after all this took place. January 29th, I came up with a small little melody while at work and wrote down what I remembered on a piece of paper. That week, every day that I wrote on it, I had a new piece of paper outlining some little idea until I had mostly finished the composing.

But the thing is, the song became a release for all the negative emotions I'd been carrying. The anger, frustration, and overarching pain from last year faded away as I worked on the song and was replaced with a combination of joy, comfort and a brightness of hope. The song became imbued with all those emotions along with a somber undertone--the remnant of what pain I still felt. And you know, in hindsight as I think back on last year--it's the little moments--the little thoughts--the little things that kept me going.

And thats where the title comes from. You don't need to have a perfect life to be happy. You don't need to have everything you ever wanted to be content. Despite all the stress, I still overall was a happy person and kept moving forward. Cause it's "The Little Things" that keep me going at the end of the day. Those little things can add up to a whole lot if you take the time to appreciate them.

Special thanks to James Robert Staten, Jerry Xu, Stakeout Punch, Jousboxx, Etorna_Z, Peeftube, Pankakez, MegaHOP, Dystany, and Poleroyd for all the critical feedback y'all gave me as I sent demos of early versions. Your feedback really helped me shape the track into what it was.

I'd also like to dedicate the song to the memory of Lisa Kimmell Jacobs--a wonderful woman in my hometown who passed away on the day I started writing this song.

The Little Things (Original Mix)

I miss the old days of SoundCloud - the ones where they weren't trying to monetize anything and everything on their platform. As their company has morphed into its varying desperate forms in the last several years, I've decided to part ways from them. When I first signed up for an account in 2008, I loved the free interaction we had together...you as the listener and me as the artist - your feedback was brilliant and shaped me into the composer I am now...but in recent years I've seen SoundCloud try to change their model to compete with the bigger names like Spotify and Apple Music, and that means they want to charge you (and me) to listen. My music is a free gift from God, and I write what I do as a gift to you...to unlock something deep and to take you somewhere new in your journey. I am boycotting where SoundCloud is headed and I hope to see you on other platforms that don't change their DNA every few years...

I've loved the ride, and I love each of you - it's been the greatest joy.
