This past week I took the time to appreciate the beauty that is around me each day. I was appreciating the beauty in the record breaking warm temperatures, and also the cooler air in the evenings which created the perfect sleeping temperature.
I was also appreciating the beauty of the little bright green bird that hit my window and landed in a little hammock in my yard after falling. Watching over it, its’ little eyes looked up at me as it turned its’ head, unable to fly away, until an hour later when it flew 20 feet up into the air and landed on a branch in the cedar tree.
I appreciated the beauty of the baby in the stroller at the Walmart check-out who returned my smiles with huge smiles of his own.
I appreciated the beauty of my one year old great nephew playing drums in a video that was sent to me.
It cheered me up to focus on the beautiful things around me more.
