One of the curses of perpetual busyness is a failure to really notice the things that are always present. I have several pictures of my precious children at various ages in my home office. I glance at them each time I sit at the computer. Because they are both hundreds of miles away, I've spent more time really focusing on these precious images. I've loved every age and stage of their lives and their bright smiles captured in these special photos warm my heart.
This experience reminded me that it's not enough to fill the spaces where we spend a lot of time with things that bring us joy. We have to pause long enough to absorb the joy.
