Tonight, simply some images of things I have seen lately.

But here is the thing about each one of them.  They are not extraordinary in most people’s mind.  In fact, they mostly go unnoticed… perhaps even stepped on or brushed aside.

Yet, each one is highly interesting and incredibly beautiful.  If you just spend a little time with it.

I think this is true about most things in life.  Including the peoples among us.

We may not notice them, or even think they have anything worthwhile to offer.

But I argue that every ONE has something incredible within.  It just might take a little work to figure it out.

Blessed are they who see beautiful things in humble places where other people see nothing.  — Camille Pissarro 

Love the moment and the energy of that moment will spread beyond all boundaries.  —  Corita Kent


The key to growth is the introduction of higher dimensions of consciousness into our awareness.  — Lao Tzu

It is far better to be alone, than to be in bad company.
—  George Washington
