Affirmation: I find beauty in ordinary things.
This is true for me...I find beauty in the songs of birds, the sweet melody of the tree leaves rustling in the wind, the beauty and majesty of our Colorado mountains, the cool feeling of the grass in my hands....and on and on.
Anyone know why the mockingbird is my favorite bird? It has no song of it's own. It mimics the songs of other birds. In order to do this...it must be a skillful listener!
