Hello beautiful people! How are you today?
In this post I wanted to share something simple yet something I love and admire all the time - beauty of roses. These ones are growing in front of our home and I'm always happy to see them after long winter months. It's amazing how flowers, trees and nature in general, the variety of shapes and colors can bring so much joy, life and gratitude. A lot of times we speed through our days without stopping and just taking a moment to appreciate small details in our every day life. I guess we are just used to it and that feeling of gratitude and appreciation fades away. I've fallen out of this "habit" to express gratitude (in my mind or writing it down) multiple times a day as I used to do and I feel like that was the best way to stay present in the moment. But these roses remind me of it every day when I see them, water them, smell them. It's like they are telling me: "Hey, look how pretty we are, look at our vibrant colors and how much we're grown making your front yard beautiful and cozy!"
So this post went from me wanting to share some pictures of roses to me ended up doing a nice stretching session, talking about gratitude and presence here while listening to an inspiring podcast and it will end with me dumping all my thoughts in one of the notebooks I have sitting around (aka my new brain dump journal) before I go to sleep. I might even meditate for 5-10 minutes.
How are you guys doing? Have you taken a moment to express gratitude towards something today? If not, feel free to do so in the comments below. Shine bright and have a wonderful day! :)
