All that is beautiful

Beauty surrounds us in all forms that appeal to all of our senses. We see it in nature as the seasons change, walking through a park, or observing a waterfall cascading over a precipice. There is the unique beauty of a rainbow, fireworks on a summer's night, or the face of a sleeping child. We experience a sense of beauty in the fragrance of a gardenia, a favorite piece of music that stirs our spirit, or sunlight sparkling like diamonds on a lake. Beauty is everywhere. It occurs as a sense of warmth when we observe a couple walking hand in hand, an elderly grandmother embracing her infant grandchild, or a group of small children laughing and playing, The list is endless. We can choose to focus on that which is beautiful in the world rather than the imperfections of mankind. At any given moment we can take in such gifts. Think of what beauty delights your soul and be sure to take time from your day to access it. This is especially important if you have been having a day that seems to be going awry, Notice the difference in your thoughts and feelings after pausing to do this. What is on your list of what is beautiful in the world?
