What do you see? A brown eyed susan? A beautiful blue sky? A brightly colored roof? There is beauty everywhere just as there is good all around us. We only need to look and listen and smell and hear and feel. There are difficult days and there is ugliness, but we shouldn't let ourselves get caught up in that.
To really make a difference in this world we need to have open minds and open hearts and open eyes. We need to enjoy life. We need to smell those flowers! Really. I used to say that every day and I still mean it. Smell the flowers along the way. Really. It's important. No, we don't have to actually bend down and put our nose to a flower, but we do need to live!
We have so much to give, and it all starts with love. Smell the flowers along the way. They're only here for a very short time and they need a lot of love to grow!
