Today has been busy. Of course, I feel that my life usually is busy and there simply are not enough hours in the day for me to do all that I want. Or even all that I need. But in the hectic mess of it all running between family, class, work, and friends when it feels like everything is about to fall apart and one more grain of rice will tip the scale, I take comfort in the fact that I am surrounded by beauty. I’m in HAWAII! The beauty here is easy to spot. It grows from the trees, shines down from the skies and meets the horizons. Even while I was in Utah though, or Michigan, or North Dakota, the beauty was there in the mountains, in the lakes, in the rolling fields.
Don’t let the stress get to you. Pause for a moment. Look around you. Find something beautiful. A letter from a friend, a blossoming flower, a smiling child, the way the wind is rushing around. Find that and let it remind you that not everything is crazy and the big test this week is not the end of your life.
