Since we are coming into the holiday season and things will be crazy busy, it seems a good time to acknowledge all the natural beauty around us. The shops will be ramping up with the holiday music as well as the decorations. With errands to run and things on our list to check off we tend to forget that we live in a magnificent world that is beautiful just as it is without all the artificial tinsel and lights.
If we just stop for a few minutes in our day and gaze out the window, we can restore our equilibrium by soaking up the sights and sounds around us. It might be a patch of sunlight illuminating a single leaf or a tiny chipmunk scurrying across the road with his cheeks full of acorns, that causes us to catch our breath in wonder. When that first crystalline snowflake lands on the fir tree outside the window, stop what you are doing and admire it. The list of things to do will still be there but nature is transitory and its beauty changes every minute!
