Finding beauty in your day is something so simple to do and so powerful in reducing stress and frustration, often we forget to stop and do just that. It is like we have become “Human Doings: instead of “Human Beings”. Sometimes what we most need in our day we just need to STOP and “BE”. Be present, notice beauty. Breathe.

Years ago I worked as a youth counselor to teenage girls that were homeless, drug addicted, gang affiliated and often pregnant and/or parenting.
