When you look out of your window in the morning, what do you see, really see. What sounds can you hear - from the car passing to the rushing wind as it blows through the trees, do you hear the birds chattering or rain drops falling? can you hear the movement in your house, the door creaking, a cupboard closing, the laughter of your child?.
Don't let another day pass without really taking note, how can you contribute in a positive way to your surroundings, and make it better for the next generation? As you go about your day take the time to really appreciate what you have.
Tomorrow kicks of with the first A-Z April Challenge post, and its
been great making the preparations for it.
Don’t forget that the clocks go forward today, so you gain extra day light. It really does make a difference and the
evenings will be brighter as well.
With April being a celebratory month for me my posts will
reflect that, I will be holding a daily celebration of life and hope to
encourage you in the process!
I look forward to seeing your comments and insights along
the way. The preparations have been
made, the table set and all that’s missing is you. You will definitely
get something out of being part of the process come and take the time this
month to share a piece of you!
I lift up my eyes to the hills – where does my help come
from? My help comes from the Lord, the
Maker of heaven and earth... Psalm 121:1-2
Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of
your heart ...Psalm 37.4
for riches do not
endure forever, and a crown is not secure for all generations
Proverbs 27:24
I love that you are not only asking us to see what's around us, but to actually contribute and make things better! My husband paints using oils. Lately he's been taking pictures of ordinary day-to-day things ... maybe something in our home ... maybe random photos when we're out and about. He then uses those photos to paint a scene. What I find fascinating is that his interpretation of the photos makes me see things differently ... I start to notice elements that I've otherwise missed. I'm looking forward to your posts this month!
ReplyDeleteIt is a great way to start to really look at the beauty that we have around us that we normally take for granted, I like the idea of using the photos to paint a scene.
