"There is beauty, there is joy, and there is laughter in life--as there ought to be." - Samuel Palmer Brooks
In the society we live in we typically don't take the time to stop and look around at the incredible things happening around us and fully appreciate them. We can find fault in anything and everything. However, while critique does have its place, life is too short and too full of wondrous, inspiring moments for negativity to dominate our thoughts and our dialogue. Even the smallest every day happenings can serve to remind us of the beauty, the happiness, and the magic around us if we stop just long enough to reflect on them.
