Notice the world

There are so many things that I think about each day that I never do. There are many people that I run into that I will never see again. How many people around us never speak to another person all day long. My family laughs at me because I say hello to EvErYoNe. I compliment people on their shirt or their hair, everyone deserves to smile at least one time per day. Why is it that some people are so nice to strangers and yet do not take proper care of themselves. Everyone needs to know what it feels like to sit in silence for just a half of an hour. When is the last time you experienced peace and solitude. It has been a while for me. In my home there is always a TV or Video Game on. If that is not on then there is music or people in the pool outside. To have complete silence to sit with just your thoughts and feelings is rare. Children need to get out in Nature again. Then need to play in the dirt and be allowed to be kids. Joy is in the moments. Love in the in silence. Peace comes with faith in knowing that no matter what you choose today it will always make for a better tomorrow. Everyone say Hi to a stranger today. Offer to pay for the person behind you in the drive thru. Make eye contact. Love with your whole heart and sit for just a while in silence.
