The Squirrel The Squirrel The Squirrel
Posted In: Self Reflection by Michael
Each morning when I pull out of my neighborhood to go anyway, I face a lake with a chain link fence around it. It is nice each day to see this beautiful sight as I go on with my day.
Recently, Justin noticed that someone painted a picture of a squirrel and just attached it to the fence. Justin thinks this is so weird. He doesn’t understand why someone would do that. He thinks it is silly.
I think it is wonderful. I feel someone was inspired by the lake and must have painted a picture of the squirrel from around the wooded area and decided, when they finished, to share it with everyone.
I see the beauty in the lake each morning as I leave and I see the beauty in the painting. I love knowing someone wanted to share with us their talent and art.
I think it is so important to find the beauty in each day. What is something that you find beautiful in you life each day?

Everything. A butterfly, a bird, a smile, the trees, the flowers, a cat, cooperation… I look for beauty everyday, and I always find it. It’s everywhere.

Great. I love butterflies. I do not know what it is about them but they seem so magical to me.

I think it looks like a skunk, myself. Perhaps someone put it there as a warning to others that there my be a skunk in the area.
Lately, with my windows open in the summer, I am finding beauty in the curtains blowing in the wind. I have some very light-weight sheers that make some beautiful billowy movement with even the slightest of breezes. It’s very soothing to watch.

Nick,
That sounds great! Watching them just flow in the wind.
Maybe it is a warning! Luckly I survived a risk at being mauled!

YES, Michael-
That is DEFINATELY a skunk!! LOL
How would you get mauled by a skunk? Worse case scenario is that you would be sprayed.
You would need to take a tomato soup bath!
Just like they did on the Partridge family. LOL
I hope you are doing well and HAVE A GREAT DAY!!
Always-
