“Its became a game between you and me…I chase your golden light…endlessly…and sit patiently as your beauty unfolds before me…one more time…and as you warm me with the your gentle strength, I’m barely aware of the miracle you set before me. Silently in awe as you once again make the sky your own personal canvas, you light up everything around you, painting the purest colors I’ve ever witnessed. And even in my darkest days, I can rely on you…you always show up, to remind me once again of life’s many marvels. You’re always right there with the promise of….a brand new day…”

I walked out of school one day and began walking to my car. My car was parked in the exact same place where I always leave it. When for perhaps the first time, I looked up to the sky and saw this beautiful sight. How interesting that I’ve walked this path so many times before and never once have I stopped to actually admire how beautiful this particular place is. I stopped to take a picture of it so that I can add it to my collection of “this beautiful universe.” When I started adding the words to the picture I took a step back at the finished product and for the first time realized the heart shape in the grass, just another way this life, this world, delightfully surprises me every day.
So today slow down, let this world surprise you, let it unfold its beauty right before your eyes. Your only job is to make sure your eyes are open and your heart is willing.
