Today's Practice: What If
Beauty is all around you, all the time.
It is up to you to see it.
Often we pay attention to what is wrong, in the news, in our mind, in our worries...
What if instead of thinking about our to do list each day when we awoke, instead of checking our phone, facebook, instagram or our email - what if instead we awoke and smiled. Grateful to be able to wiggle our toes. In awe of the sun light filling our bedroom.
What if while driving to work we marveled at each tree we passed, and each unique incarnation of God we encountered.
What if we meditated on all the little gratitudes and beauties surrounding us, instead of rushing to the meeting, frustrated with our boss.
What if we noticed our surroundings with presence as we went into the grocery story - appreciating all the different shades of blue in the market.
What if we said hello to the birds, and sent healings to the bees?
How you choose to live and perceive, is a choice. What if...
