We've been enjoying a couple of
days of cooler temps and lower humidity. What a delight it's been to
sit on our screened porch and do a little yard work in reasonable
comfort at the end of June.
While mowing this morning, I
used the time to clear my mind. It's good to do that every now and
then; to reset and concentrate on the present. I focused on the
breeze across my face, the smell of newly mown grass, the contrast of
sun and shade, and how nice everything looked when we finished. I
was happy just to be here.
Wouldn't it be nice to have
that quiet feeling of satisfaction in all that we do? Life would
sure be simpler. The answer may be to stay in the moment and
experience all life has to offer. There could be something important in everything, even mundane chores or negative experiences. I
believe I'll try looking for that hidden moment every day.
“There's
a treasure hidden in every moment.
The joy of life is finding it.”
