Beauty Lies Everywhere

The smell of rain... seeing a sunrise peek through the darkness... quiet, star-filled nights lying in a field... notes on my pillow... a bowl of flowers cut from my own garden... fields of flowers... elderly couples holding hands...
Smiling sales assistants... giving unexpected, simple gifts that really touch people... truly, happy smiles... that euphoric feeling when everything is perfectly lovely... wavy, curly hair... trinkets that only mean something to me... tea in a beautiful china cup... sunshine that slowly warms your whole body till you're carried on its rays... a pretty cupcake...

Campfires with friends... playing games that you're too old for but no one cares because it's more fun than anything else... dusk in summer...

lying in a hammock with a good book... walking barefoot along a beach alone with your thoughts... japanese cherry blossoms... flowing, summery dresses...
So many things hold the potential for beauty if we only take the time to see it...
