These were just simple weeds on the edge of a parking lot. Until I took a second glance, and saw the beautiful purple and green, the spiny forms that would look so lovely in a pewter vase on our autumn table.

How often this is true in life! Things, circumstances, people that we first see as simple, ordinary, or thorn-covered, when we look closer are beauty-full.

May you see the beauty in the everyday ordinary bits of your day today. <3
