“When I took away the lens of the negative and forced myself to look at the positive, I found that there were far more things worth celebrating in the everyday than I had ever realized. What I took from all of this was that this is it.
The kids playing in the park.
The crossing guard who smiles at me every morning when I pull into school.
Even the sweaters my neighbor puts on his dog (as unfortunate as animals in clothes are).
This is what our world is made up of. These ordinary things. And if we’re willing to take the time to see it, we’ll realize that this ordinary day is wonderful because it’s simple and complicated, beautiful and mysterious and wholly ours.”
This is a really cool idea for a site. It’s great to see folks recognizing positive things in the details of a day.

Yeah!!!!!Exactly…”The sky above is deeper blue, the earth below a brighter green, there is wonder in every hue…that Christless eyes can never see….” That is life…the wonder of the simple things. I love it.
I find such joy in Blue’s missing tooth and the sparkle in Noah’s eyes.
