unexpected treasures

If you are traveling...on vacation, on the way to work or school, to get the morning paper...stop and take a look. Unexpected treasures are everywhere...

a flower that grows along the side of the road...it freely gives its beauty and color...

shells and bits of sea glass...among some ordinary pebbles...you have to dig a little bit, but they are there...

the way the morning sky is full of soft hues that welcome a new day...the rhythm of each day...

These are the "little things" that can be missed when we hurry through our day. Yet if we pause, there is a deep message that resonates...that life welcomes us every day, and we are meant to be here.
