Extraordinary



The only difference between an extraordinary life and an ordinary one 
is the extraordinary pleasures you find in ordinary things. 
Veronique Vienne
 


Sometimes I think the most real things are not the ones on the news, but the common, ordinary, wonderful things.

Neighbors. The things growing in your garden and alongside the road.
The crunch of a pickle or smell of a baking pie.
 The pleasure of being able to see color and hear the song of birds.



Your life is extraordinary. Mine is.

Let's slow down and notice the ordinary miracles today.


Summer's ending and we have so much to savor and celebrate as the season is on the cusp of change.
