Gratitude Monday: It's there if you look

Some days your gratitude is macro; some days micro. Today’s the latter, but I think it’s also the former.

One recent morning on my walk, I was struck by the elegant arrangement of three roses on their bush. So of course I shot a photo.

There’s something about the formation of the pink flowers against the green shrubbery and the subtle curve to the right that just hums. I'm so grateful to have this kind of thing all around me.

You don’t have to stop to smell the roses, but it’s worth your time to pause to appreciate what they’re giving you.
