It's up to you

It’s a beautiful Monday.

That kind of sounds like an oxymoron ~ “(rhetoric) an epigrammatic effect, by which contradictory terms are used in conjunction: living death, fiend angelical”

Mondays for most people are the start of another long week of work, the day that most people dread. After the amazingly beautiful week of Indian summer weather we've had, it's hard to find any beauty in today. It's a cooler, no sun-shining, chillier-than-we've had, cloudy, stay-indoors kind of day. Some would say it’s an ugly day. A depressing day. A day to stay in bed.

The saying “beauty is in the eye of the beholder,” has much truth to it. The beauty I see today might not be beauty to you at all. And that’s okay if we don’t see it in the same way.

Monday is a good day to begin small-moment living in a fast-moving world. To be thankful for the real-life moments of my day to day life.  This is where real life happens. On Monday afternoon. In the midst of laundry baskets, dirty dishes and desks covered with paperwork.

No longer do we have to choose between an ordinary life and an extraordinary one, because they are the same thing.
