Beauty in the Details

Sometimes the beauty is in the details...

Even though we think we'd like to see the *big picture*

I think it's better that God sometimes gives us
only a close-up view

If we saw the *big picture*

We might close our eyes and miss

the *wonder* of His creations.

Weeds are flowers too, once you get to know them.

~A. A. Milne

As one grows older, one should grow more expert at finding beauty in unexpected places,

in deserts and even in towns, in ordinary human faces and among the wild weeds.

~C. C. Vyvyan

"Paws", our 14 yo kitty, thought she'd like to surround herself with some

flowering beauty too :-)

I know that some of you are covered in layers and layers of white fluffy snow,

so I thought I'd share a little color popping up around here.

As you see, it isn't always so pretty when you look at it from afar, 

although we often think this is the *better* view.

My garden is a mess, and weeds are everywhere...

there is however...

 beauty in the details :-)
