Attitude Is Everything

Starting the Week Off Right

June 27, 2022

Good Morning,


When is the last time you, really, stopped to enjoy nature?


The world is a busy place. We are busy people, always doing something. We get up in the morning and go go go until time to go to bed. Technology seems to absorb every waking minute. We wake up to technology, work with technology, leisure with technology, and fall asleep to technology.


We need to make time to stop, even for a few dedicated minutes each day, and enjoy the world around us. No, I am not thinking of all of the things man has made. I am thinking of nature. The beauty and sweet smell of a rose. A squirrel or bird just living life. The flowing of water in a river, or the wind blowing through the trees. All of these can help us to relax and put our lives in perspective. All can help us reduce the stress we face every day living out our lives.


Yes, vacations are wonderful and enjoyable but, if like mine, become just a different version of go go go. I’m not putting down vacations. We all need an extended time away. The point is, we also need regular mini breaks. I find the time spent during the day enjoying and appreciating nature and God’s creations much more relaxing and refreshing.


Make time to smell the roses. You won’t regret it.
