The number of colors and textures I see looking out my window this morning is staggering. The moon is bright and huge, the sky is displaying beautiful pastel pinks and blues and grays, the trees are illuminated not only by the moon, but also the rising sun….reds, yellows, oranges….amazing.
The sun and moon are enhancing their beauty by sparkling in the frost on the grass. Autumn in Michigan is truly beautiful.
Sometimes I get so busy in the problems of the day that I forget to appreciate the beauty of things around me. Things that aren’t spoiled by politics, pride, and one-up-man-ship.
Busy-ness can take you away from the enjoyment of life. The old adage “take time to smell the roses” is certainly true. But focusing on the negative aspects of your life can also steal your joy. We all have problems, and we can’t, and shouldn’t ignore them. But we all need to take a little time when we forget about them and focus on the beauty that is right in front of us. We just need to look for it. You need the break from the ‘junk’. Take it!
You can do this.
