Easily Overlooked, Look Again
“We ‘re all yearning for a wedge of sky, aren ‘t we? I suspect God plants these yearnings in us so we’ll at least try and change the course of things. We must try, that’s all” ― Sue Monk Kidd, The Invention of Wings
“The most significant gifts are the ones most easily overlooked. Small, everyday blessings: woods, health, music, laughter, memories, books, family, friends, second chances, warm fireplaces, and all the footprints scattered throughout our days.”― Sue Monk Kidd
In the details
Ordinary days
Delays, detours and distractions
Take a breath, a pause, hard stop
Look up, look in, notice with new eyes
What’s right before and in reach
Small everyday blessings
Awe, wonder, delight
Persist in love, joy, gratitude
Look again.
“And when you get down to it, Lily, that is the only purpose grand enough for a human life. Not just to love but to persist in love.”― Sue Monk Kidd, The Secret Life of Bees
