Simple Days
"Don't let
yourself get so busy that you miss those little but important extras in life
~
the beauty of a day...
the smile of a friend...
the serenity of a
quiet moment alone.
For it is often life's smallest pleasures and gentlest
joys that make the biggest and most lasting difference."
You are so right! Yesterday I was in Washington DC taking photos of the cherry blossoms, and realized I wasn't enjoying the moment, so I stopped taking photos and took it all in... I hope you're enjoying your day too!
I really do need to go sit down. My bench has blown over from the strong winds and the last snow is still out there making it too cold. I like your bench.

Stop and smell the roses but notice the lowly clover blooming also, I say! Have a beautiful day!
Amen to that!

So True!

Thanks for sharing your spring with us. Ours here in Massachusetts is just now thinking about arriving.
