Animals and Children Teach Us To Find Joy and Wonder in Simplicity

There is just something so refreshing as animals and small children. I was inspired with these thoughts by the picture of a squirrel in the morning sun. One of the most amazing experiences was out in nature at the Grand Canyon observing the small animals on the side of the Grand Canyon and just wondering how they viewed this miraculous National Park.

Mornings bring a start to the day and the sunlight coming up and sparking on creation is so beautiful.The small creatures live in much more simplicity than we do. The squirrel at the Grand Canyon isn't thinking about the traffic jams we face heading back to the city  or how the stock market is doing today.

Children's eyes light up when they see new things. Children have a fresh perspective on the world and we should stop to enjoy what they say more often.
I love the questions children ask about nature as they explore the world and have many first-time experiences.

Approach today with fresh, innocent eyes and see how your day unfolds. Today is a beautiful day and it's wonderful to be part of it. Smile today and enjoy the world around you.
