Welcome to week 3 of my thought of the week!
We say the world is full of ugly things like hatred and violence. While this is true I still believe the world, and the majority of it’s people, are beautiful.
Sometimes, you just have to look a little harder. Sometimes you need to adjust your perspective on what is beautiful.
I believe that there is beauty all around us in nature, and learning to notice and appreciate these little everyday beauties can make us see that the world isn’t so bad after all.
I think this quote nicely sums up that idea:
“View the world with fresh eyes, there is so much beauty out there if you only look for it!”
Which quote sums up your week? Let me know in the comments

I think sometimes we become so familiar with our own surroundings and environment that in a way we become immune or oblivious to the beauty around us. This is a really good reminder that we need to make a concerted effort to really SEE what is around us and the more we see, the more the beauty of our ‘everyday’ will shine through.

I agree, we take our surroundings for granted, and often in the routine of life, we fail to really see what is around it, it becomes the visual equivalent of background noise.

That is a great quote and good to remind ourselves of on occasion. In everyday life it is so easy to get caught up in the little things that are inconsequential. You have applied this to the natural environment, but I also see that it has relevance for my family life too. #Sharethejoy

That’s a really good point, it is important to see the good in people around us too and remember not to take them for granted ๐

Great quote. I think there is beauty everywhere, and when we force ourselves to look for it we ae forced to look for the good, the bad has no place in this search. Continually focusing on the good brings more good. That’s priceless!
Debbie, My Random Musings
Thank you ๐ I couldn’t agree more, everything is beautiful in one way or another, sometimes, like you say, we just need to force ourselves to look for it. Yes, when you look for the good, you see it more and more and eventually, you hardly notice the bad!

This is a lovely quote and something I often think myself. It’s easy to get caught up in the everyday routine, rushing here and there, without really noticing our surroundings and seeing the beauty that’s there. #CandidCuddles
