This morning, I prayed during my walk on the beach path. I thanked God for the warm day, the sunshine on my skin, the dolphins in the ocean and the ability to walk beside it and take it all in.
Then I heard a woman's voice behind me.
"Her bank account is overdrawn, her rent is past due and she's buying tea cups!" The woman bitched as she passed me on a beach cruiser. She pedaled along side a man. He stared straight ahead at the sparkling water.
A moment passed. Then she yelled, "Where did she get the money for f&cking tea cups?!"
He continued to stare ahead.
This is what she wasn't paying attention to:
All I have to say is take a look around people. Take a look around.
What are you missing out on while you bitch about stupid stuff?

Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI try to be positive but I'm sure I do miss a few things once in a while!
Take a look around and SHUT UP, right?
ReplyDeleteI miss out on how terrific my kids are. I do. Thanks for the reminder.
What a beautiful gratitude practice and reminder to be in the moment.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I bet those were some amazing teacups.
