Falling in love with the simple life...

Hello my lovelies and welcome to the Lilacs and Lavender Boutique.  And yet I must say,  we are not just a boutique as we also love sharing our wellness journey, as up and down that may be.  While navigating this life journey, part of our focus is finding joy through nourishing our souls in all things beautiful and then conveying it to those around us.  We do live in a complicated world but it's still the simple moments that truly feed our souls.  There is so much beauty in our world if we only stop and notice.  There is beauty in the new fresh spring wildflowers.  There is beauty in the sound of birds singing in the morning.  Beauty is in the way the morning sun comes in through the window.  There is beauty in the way we feel when someone gives us an encouraging word.  Stopping to notice these little things every day is a great way to  nourish the soul.  Every single morning there is something new happening in creation and it brings me to the moment where I can stop and just be in love with life.  Oh, to allow ourselves to get excited about the little things...to allow ourselves to have that childlike wonder.  Life is a miracle so to let go of the chaos and just be is the joy we were meant to experience.  It is so important to train our eyes and minds to see the goodness in everyday life.  So, in keeping with that thought, let us contemplate the word of God in Philippians 4:8 where it says, "Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable; if anything is excellent or praiseworthy, think about such things."
