In our relentless rush to finish various tasks and obligations, we often overlook the nearby beauty that surrounds us, such as the vibrant and colorful flowers that bloom freely. We forget not only their enchanting fragrance but also the myriad wonders that nature presents to us on a daily basis. These stunning roses, which grace my Charlotte backyard, remained unnoticed by me until a peaceful, serene day following a refreshing rain shower, when I finally took a moment to pause and explore my surroundings. It was then that I realized beauty is often found just within arm's reach, patiently waiting to be discovered if we take the time to truly observe and connect with the Divine that resides in every moment.
