Don't Ask!

You Don't Need To

By Ruth Elizabeth StiffPublished about a month ago 1 min read
Beauty shines

“Beautiful things

don’t ask for attention.”

True beauty is very often quiet

but can always be seen.

A butterfly is

delicate, small, beautiful

and silent

but we always see one and ‘wonder’

at its complete colouring and beauty.

The sunrise every morning

is beautiful, glowing and silent

but we see it every morning,

giving us that sense of calm.

‘Such beautiful elements

serve to inspire us

to find value

in the modest and the unassuming.’

All of this encourages us

and inspires us

to cultivate gratitude

for the amazing and remarkable “life”

which surrounds us on a daily basis.

This stimulates

a deep sense of connection

with the world we live in.

When we nurture appreciation

for the beauty around us,

we find peace, contentment and grace.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
