Unexpected Beauty

Who doesn't enjoy a challenge from time to time? While perusing through Twitter, I saw the Six Word Story challenge and thought why not?

So what's the background to this story? My daughter and I were hiking on a trail, happily enjoying the silence and serenity (not necessarily enjoying the Kansas humidity). A few feet beyond the trail, we saw this and stopped to admire it. Of course, I had to snap a picture of it...just because.

Fast forward to the writing challenge today. Unsure whether this photo would be utilized, I immediately thought of the importance of noticing beauty regardless of where you are. What would happen to us personally and the world if we were focused on finding inspiration and beauty instead of tearing each other down? Give it a try, you never know what you'll find!
