There are plenty of ugly things in this world, but there is also much beauty. I going to choose to look at the beauty.

Gifts

Every day a gift awaits, specifically designed for you on that particular day, you can expect that it will be there.

We miss it often, not looking for it, expecting something different, distracted by worries....

But if we live wide-eyed in anticipation, we see it. And it changes us.

The splendor of the sky, the color of a cardinal, the smile of a stranger, the unexpected blessings. These are gifts, but the gift is only as valuable as the thankfulness of the receiver. And the more thankful we are, the richer we become.

And the more glimpses we get of the giver, the creator, the one that knows what we need when we need it, today and forever.

What if we properly received every single gift?
