consider the kiwi. a dull brown fuzz on the outside. simple. nothing to catch your eye. but... when opened, it reveals it's vibrant colors, patterns and intricate seed designs. bursting with juicy sweet flavor. gorgeous. delicious. be encouraged by the kiwi. take time to see beyond. what do you notice? where do you find unexpected beauty?

i find unexpected beauty in the dim, quiet, cool moments before the sun rises and noah wakes and the trash trucks come and the traffic begins and the gardeners arrive and the neighbors shower and the coffee percolates.

i breathe them all in and hold my breath for as long as i can. when i exhale, the day begins.
