Beauty is All Around Us-Just Need to Look Up!

 Given the name of this post from on High and told to share my experience from 3 nights ago.

I am currently a volunteer with the Forest Service. I drove out to Lower Miller parking lot to check on the trash and clean the bathrooms there. I had already taken care of the trash and scrubbed the 2 vaulted toilets.  

I was totally focused on the task on hand and had my eyes down busy sweeping the area when I turned my head and  looked up and over for a quick second and saw color pop into my view. I stopped sweeping, rested the broom against the wall and just paused to look at the beautiful sunset that was happening while I was so focus on getting the bathrooms cleaned. I took a few minutes to just soak in the beautiful colors of the painted sky and listen to the crickets singing praises in the trees in the background. I grabbed my phone to take a few photos of this to capture to share with others. The picture doesn't even come close to how beautiful it was just BEing there in nature and watching the sky light up in multiple colors.

Many times in life, we are so focused on the next tasks, our routines, schedules that we forget to "look up". There is beauty all around us for us to see and experience if we take time to pause and look up. The phrase "look up" reminds me of this song-enjoy!
