See the beauty

View from ny kitchen - isn't God good?

Shug: I think it pisses God off when you walk by the color purple in a field and don't notice it. Shug: More than anything God love admiration.

Celie: You saying God is vain?

Shug: No, not vain, just wanting to share a good thing. I think it pisses God off when you walk by the colour purple in a field and don't notice it.

Celie: You saying it just wanna be loved like it say in the bible?

Shug: Yeah, Celie. Everything wanna be loved. Us sing and dance, and holla just wanting to be loved. Look at them trees. Notice how the trees do everything people do to get attention... except walk?

See the beauty and be grateful because everything starts with gratitude. Appreciating what you have even if what you have seems meager. If life seems underwhelming or disappointing, it might just be that you are not Seeing the Beauty. Even in the mist of trauma, chaos, disappointment, anger and strife, the sun always comes up. So what’s the use of focusing on the negative, see the beauty in all things.

"Whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, let your mind dwell on these things." Philippians 4:8
