Driving home from getting groceries yesterday, I had to stop and pull over about a quarter mile from home. Sure, I was in a rush to get the ice cream home before it melted, but I was compelled to stop for a moment and enjoy this little slice of Heaven.
Sometimes it's hard to find the beauty in things, other times it slams you upside the head. This day I thankful for the reminder to stop and take a moment to appreciate what I have.
How generous and kind of Nature to push your pause button. As I often say, there's beauty everywhere, if only we pause to acknowledge it.
ReplyDeleteWhen I saw the ocean picture that you used for your blog id I just HAD to visit to see if you were near me (drat no) but we do share the same ocean! I'm on Vancouver Island; south end and yes it does hit us upside the head and Good That It Does! Blessings down there from us up here!
ReplyDeleteand thank you for the reminder of finding the beautiful and meaningful tings.
ReplyDeleteMelted ice cream is worth it for a moment of serenity and inspiration :)
