Today I thought it would be good to write about something terribly important; something to open the eyes of mankind or to provide a solution to a tremendous global problem.
Instead of something deep, I can only be in the moment and see the little things. Making dinner with as little waste as possible and keeping it healthy. Doing laundry and making sure I am not wasting water or using ‘unsafe’ laundry detergent. Taking a walk and wondering how long my shoes will last before I need to replace them. Feeding the birds and making sure to give them enough to get through the very cold day we are having today. Planning my week to make sure I get everything done that I should and leaving time to smell the roses each day. Looking at my hibiscus plant, now wintering in the basement, and noticing that it will have a flower this week. I must make sure to see it when it opens.
Sometimes the little things are all we have and they can add up to help solve some of the major world problems. Waste not want not. Take care of yourself and all God’s creatures or at least, don’t harm them. Be resourceful. Don’t miss the blooming of the flowers.
