Focus on the Stars

 

Elizabeth Bunson is an artist I follow on social media. Recently she had a series called "focus on the glimmers".  That thought has stuck with me as I focus on HOPE this year.

What does it mean to focus on the stars or glimmers of light? The joys and kindness, civility. The glimmers of hope in a dark world whether it is something beautiful or a person's smile. Let's surround ourselves with beauty in this dark world. We are worth savoring a beautiful cup of tea, a sunrise or sunset, a rainbow, a flower at the market or a kind word spoken.

Bright shiny red on my toes makes me smile.

Pretty things at the antique mall. Oh, do you see that light?

 

Silly smiles from my daughter.

Flowers in anyone's garden.



 Let's join hands together each and every day. Focus, focus, focus and see the glimmers of hope, let the light shine.
 
Sending love,
Marilyn

What a lovely post, Marilyn. I love your red polish on your toes. That's a delightful picture of your daughter. And the flowers draping against the wall is very pretty. There is something so special about focusing on HOPE. I'm sipping on my holiday tea catching up on all the dear blogs. : )
