In a world which often can appear cold, dark, and sad, sometimes it can be difficult to keep your head above it all. Sometimes the weight of the world rests too easily on our shoulders and it can be difficult to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
It’s important to find positivity in the small things in life.
Years ago, I read a self-help book which explained the importance in “finding the beauty” in something every day.
Living in Wyoming, Goshen County to be exact, there is so much beauty around us. Looking out our windows each morning and finding that beauty will help improve your outlook when things get you down. Being able to stop and admire, one moment, one flower, animal etc., only takes a few moments of your day but that beauty is something you can carry with you in the darkest of times. Every day, find something special – find a quality which makes something even better.
I’ve been doing this little exercises now for a few years. I have days I find everything beautiful and other days I spend hours just trying to find that one little thing which makes my heart warm and happy.
I know it seems silly but take a moment today to look outside of your normal space and find something beautiful.
We are lucky enough to live in a community where there is beauty everywhere we look, so go find it.
