I took them outside and asked them to name three beautiful, amazing things they could see, smell, or hear. It's a cloudy morning, the rain a gentle mist and the green of the grass electric despite the darkness. Fall colors and flowers greeted us, bright and magnificent against the gray skies.
We breathed in the fresh scent of wet earth and called it amazing.
We closed our eyes to enjoy the gentle music of rain on the grass, rocks, and roof over our heads.
We appreciated the deep reds of our ornamental maple against the green, yellow, and orange in the background.
Today is still a gift. Take a moment to breathe and allow yourself to accept there is still immense beauty and light around us.
