Beauty in the Ordinary

This is not about being brilliant, or extraordinary, it's not about wanting to be famous, or making headlines, or trying to impress...this about sharing a 'gift' each day with the world...to lift the spirit of people when they read this blog, to show them the beauty in the ordinary.
"And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don't believe in magic will never find it." Raold Dahl

Vision +

Tonight I re-read my vision
and then I looked in my kitchen
and there were my kids, working away at their
special sauce for tonight's fish.
I suddenly realized, with tears in my eyes
there were no
"twinkling lights' no "ancient linens"
no "grand tables" and I wasn't even cooking...
but right here, right now I was being given my vision in its real sense...
and I laughed, and I wept and I know I will miss these beautiful children
and I am so very lucky and so very blessed.

  1. Both visions are very heartwarming...just two different, beautiful senarios. Your family is very blessed too...
