The rain was coming down hard this morning. It can be easy to be disappointed on a day like this. Lao Tzu teaches us that “Under heaven all can see beauty as beauty only because there is ugliness.” That is true, but what is “ugliness” really? Certainly not what I see today. Beauty and ugliness are largely subjective terms that we use to label things in our own minds. Sure, there are some things that are inherently ugly or evil, but everything else is not ugly, it just “is”.
Make the most of every day. Find the beauty in all things.
