Taking time to smell the roses is truly a top 10 life lesson. Smelling the roses is slowing down, acknowledging the beauty around us with our senses ‘see, touch, hear’ and taking it all in! Appreciating life and all of the colors, flavors and journeys of it. Savoring the moment! Finding the lesson, the good, the gold. That’s living present moment. Nothing is sweeter than the present! It truly is the gift it was designed to be.
I enjoy taking care of my flowers spring/summer time. This picture is a picture of one of my favorites in my backyard. While it is not a rose, it’s ‘my’ rose! Time stands still when I am in her presence. She reminds me to challenge myself to slow down, take it all in and receive the gift of the here and now!
What a great challenge for the week! You on?
