Dancing in the sunlight:




Look what was dancing in our backyard this morning.

Just watching this hummingbird dance...fly...or whatever it does, made my day. They always bring me some sort of comfort. They always look as if they are in a hurry, moving their wings so quickly...but yet they are standing still enjoying their meal. Kind of makes me think...I'm always in hurry...I need to stop and enjoy all that is around me. Maybe we all need to take our time and feel, smell (the roses), hear and touch what's around us. There is so much beauty around us...when we are in a hurry...a rush...we may just miss that important "something". By something I mean...we could miss a sunset or sunrise that was meant for us to see. Don't miss out on a laugh from your child (listen and laugh with them)...or a gentle touch from your spouse (remind them you love them and how important they are to you)...a hug before you say good bye to someone you love (maybe just maybe you will never get that 2nd chance to do it).

Please try & enjoy every moment...even if it's as minimal as a smile from a stranger or a simple hello from your neighbor.

I try to live by what you said everyday. At times life does get in the way but your blog made me realize there is always time for the small things in life. Thank you.
