There are days that life seems so hard. There are days that one thing after another assaults our bodies, minds and souls. It can be overwhelming. You may have screamed, “I can’t take anymore.

Then out of the blue you hear a bird chirp. You see a hummingbird feeding on your flowers. You smell the coffee brewing. You cut open a watermelon and take a bite out of the juiciest red one you’ve ever had. You bite into a fresh corn on the cob and memories of childhood flood your mind. Someone smiles at you that you don’t even know.

Life gets very hard but some of the most simple things can bring a moment or a second of joy! Savor those things. Look for those things. Bless others with simplicity!
