Morning Message

Morning Message
Good morning. I hope your day has beauty. It probably won’t be beauty-full. Most days aren’t. Most days are mundane and ordinary ones that we’ve lived a thousand times before. But I hope you find some beauty in it. I hope someone smiles warmly at you and reminds you that your place in this world brings joy. I hope a family member does something that affirms you’re woven into a tapestry of unchangeable love that you’ll never escape. I hope you remember to look at the sky and find awe. I hope you won’t miss the small and beautiful things that pass you. I hope when you get home from work you rest and are safe and warm. I hope you have food to enjoy and that before you eat it you give thanks for the thousand little gifts of favour God has granted you. I hope if you watch TV something makes you laugh –it’s a medicine for having to carry knowledge of this world’s woe. Or I hope if you read a book, the story touches something in your humanity –its medicine for a heart that grows apathetic and unfeeling toward this world’s woe. I hope when you go to bed again your sleep is sweet and your dreams are tempered with the beautiful things the passing day has found.
Good morning. Find the beauty in your day.
