National Making Life Beautiful Day is Thursday. It's been a rough few weeks for our country. A National day is an invitation to come together. Each of us can find beauty in the everyday and create it with acts of kindness and awareness.
Social distancing, being alone, or too much togetherness are good reasons to participate. A few ways to practice are:
Accomplish a goal, big or small. Organize a drawer, rearrange a corner, or clean a mess that someone else made.
Cherish your home and people. Listen with attention when others are talking, walk with awareness, or meditate.
Finish a project that's been lingering. Maybe a manuscript, a knitting project, or order custom tile for your kitchen.
Flourish by making a special somewhere. Light candles, incense, or purchase a new piece of artwork.
Replenish yourself and others by giving money or time. Volunteer at a food bank, Habitat for Humanity, or donate to your favorite cause.
