We All Need a Little Beauty

We all need a little beauty in our lives throughout each day, whether it is seen in a photograph of a beautiful rose or a gentle thought someone shares with us.  Beauty comes in many forms and it is God's gift and we are to enjoy it.

The rose in the center of this picture reminds me of the roses that grew on a bush at a house where my family lived in Louisiana.  The peach roses were beautiful and very prolific.  My mother would clip a few and wrap the stems in wet paper towels and then a foil outer wrapping so I could take them to my teacher.  The had short stems and grouped together made a pretty bouquet.

Beauty is all around us if we just open our eyes to receive it!
