With the heat of summer pressing in its sometimes difficult to see the beauty of the season. But what’s true is that no matter the season we are in, whether it’s dry, hot, and difficult, or easy and breezy, there is always good and beauty within the season to discover and behold.

Simplicity in its purest form takes anything from ordinary to extraordinary. How? It’s simple really! Like the fact that it only takes one flower stem to evoke a smile, and that smile is a treasure to behold. It’s the act of engaging our hearts, minds, and eyes in looking for, exploring, discovering, and truly seeing the beauty that emerges from the simplest of things that are all around us.
