The Unexpected Gift: Appreciating Life's Nice Moments

 



While in midtown on an errand, I had the pleasure of running right smack dab into a 10-foot high 6-foot wide fresh floral display in the middle of the sidewalk on Fifth Avenue. NYC is a wonderous place but this was an atypical sight. I guessed that the display was a remnant of the prior day's Easter Parade. On a busy block full of people, only 4 other individuals had stopped to look. It seemed other folks were buried in their thoughts or phones. Perhaps many were in a rush to their next appointment. 
They missed out on one of life's nice, unexpected moments. And it smelled nice, too.
Here's hoping you'll stop to smell the roses when they pop up in front of your nose....
