Stop & Smell the Roses

Stop & Smell the Roses

This time of year we’re all pulled in a number of directions as we prepare for the holidays. Lots of stress and anxiety play a major role in all of our lives. Yesterday, as I walked past the dining room table, I noticed the sunlight streaming in through the window on to the roses. I could not help, but to remind myself there are some very simple and beautiful things that I walk by and do not even notice.

For some reason, yesterday was different…thank goodness. Not only did I stop myself from moving on to my next daily task, but I went and got my camera. Taking photographs always seems to be dictated on light and this opportunity was no different.

Let’s hope this photograph will remind you to look around from time to time…”Stop & Smell the Roses”.
