The world is just amazing!

It's summer here in our country and I'm at our home in the countryside to take a break from all the hustle and bustle of city life. It's raining now and I'm just sitting by the window and my laptop in front. As I look out the horizon I began singing to myself, "??? I love the whole world. . . ???" It's like I'm a child ever so curious about every little thing. I see the trees swaying their way with the wind as if dancing with it. A bird carrying on building a nest despite the weather. I see people passing by going through their daily routines. I hear the melody of the wind, the birds, the leaves. I begin to notice everything; the trees, the grass, the ducks, the birds, the flowers, the clouds, the people, everything! It is so amazing to see how everything fits so perfectly - so interlinked. It's like every little thing is one unique piece of a jigsaw puzzle without which the puzzle can't be whole. The thought of the universe as a puzzle alone makes me smile. I cherish the idea that I am an important piece to the universe. And so are all the other things - animate or inanimate. It's time we take care not only of one piece of the puzzle but of the whole puzzle itself. Every little thing matters. In the end, what would we be without this world? I love the whole world!

It's nice to note that i am just like you. Truly appreciative of all the things what has been given us by God. Some just don't have the time to do that anymore, because they are just so engrossed in working to eke out a living. God must have been smiling at us for appreciating his creations.

He is for sure. It's just sad that most adults lose the "faculty of wonder" that they used to have as a child. We should never get used to the world. We should always appreciate it.

Indeed we live in a beautiful world specially in the countryside where it is peaceful and untouched. I hope that everybody in this world would also come to notice that and start valuing nature more. I hope this beauty wont be lost and just become a memory. Let's save mother earth.

There's no better legacy that we can leave to the future generations than the preservation of life and nature.

Attitude of Gratitude - This little place places me forever in the attitude of gratitude.
I too am forever in the attitude of gratitude for the place that I live in, which is my own creation. I am forever thankful that I get to hear the chirping of birds that visit my place specially to swim in the bird bath that I have specially created for them,the different type of fruits that they come for and for the environment that is so friendly, cool and pleasant.

Hey. I agree with every word. Most of the time when we go into adulthood we start missing the beauty in life. Except for woman. We tend to keep that for life. In the end it is the small things in life that makes it worthwhile. Good day to you and goodluck.
