In today’s Beautiful Summer Morning Newsletter I talked about there being a special gift for you somewhere in the day. You job was simply to watch for it and give thanks when you found it. that brought me to one of those self evident truths a little later in the day.

“If you don’t look for it you won’t find it.”

If you are going through your day running on automatic, doing the things you always do, following your sacred and set schedule then you will get a routine and orderly day back at you. God forbid anything gets in the way of that well worn groove of your life. You are not looking for surprises and you definitely don’t want any! Then you find yourself wondering about the treadmill you seem to be on, how life feels dull and tired and uninspired.

In each day there is a gift there for you all wrapped up in sparkly paper with a big fat red bow on top. But because we don’t look for it, we pass it by, leaving it lost on some dusty side street of life, never to be opened, never to be appreciated, never to be experienced.

The gift can be as simple as sunlight sparkling off water, or as complex as quantum physics. The gift might touch lightly on your heart or explode in one of those mind blowing “AH HA” moments.

But there is no gift until you look for it.

Don’t let a gift pass you my during some unconscious moment.

What was the gift or gifts in you day today.

Get more in tune to finding the gifts in your day by writing them down in a journal.

This will help you develop the habit of looking for them.

And remember to give thanks for the gifts you do find.

I’d love to know about the gift/gifts you received to day. Just leave a comment for me here.

In Wednesday’s Beautiful Summer Morning Newsletter, I will be writing about the gifts I found in my Day.

Here is the beautiful music of Tim Janis who I only discovered recently and must add to my play list.
This time the music is couple to some of the most awesome cloud formations taking you from dawn to sunset. Listing and watching opens you wide to the mystery. How wonderful.

Enjoy you Sunday with Family and Friends.

And walk in quiet places.
