In life, we need to learn to see the beauty that surrounds us each and every day. When we think of beauty we often think of scenic views overlooking the ocean, or mountains standing tall in the distance with snowy peaks high in the clouds. Do you ever stop and think that there is beauty everywhere you go?

Walking down the street, the way the lights shine on a street sign might look beautiful. The glimmer in the eyes of happy person is beauty. The way the pavement sparkles as the sun beams upon it, and how the clouds differ each day are both so lovely. You do not have to travel the world to see the overwhelming artistry provided daily.

You can step outside onto your front porch, and see the way the trees seem to wave in the breeze, and sound almost like a waterfall as they brush against one another. The life witnessed as the birds fly from tree to tree and the squirrels race across the grass is charming. The variety of sunsets that envelop the evening sky are so unbelievably stunning.

God created such a beautiful and awe inspiring world for us to live in, and we need to appreciate the craft put into it. Yes, traveling and seeing the beauty others experience is wonderful and grows you, but to see beauty all you truly have to do is open your eyes to what is all around you.
