Tonight I walked outside numerous times to take a peek at my first Clematis bloom. I have come to marvel at this process every year. Just a few weeks ago the plant appeared to be simply dead vines with no apparent life. Within days, the dead is covered by new growth and an abundance of green. The buds begin bursting forth promising beautiful purple flowers and today, I feel almost giddy that the first bloom has presented….
I do not have a green thumb…
I am not a gardener…
I do not tend much to this amazing wonder…
And yet every year I stand in awe of the beauty that emerges….
As I feel the energy in my being at this small wonder, I am reminded that I want to be in awe of life.
There are many small wonders every day….
There is beauty in spaces I walk on by…
There is life emerging from that which appears dead…
There is the promise of bursting beauty in nature, people and relationships….
I look forward to marveling at small wonders every day, both in my life and the life of those around me….
I invite you to do the same….stand in awe and be amazed at how amazing small wonders are!
Absolutely love this post. Beauty surrounds us all the time. All we need to do is to open our minds and heart to see it!
Good to hear from you again my friend!
… and now I’ll go and water mine…
