Having a dog has been good therapy for me. It forces me to get outside and walk. I do enjoy nature (unless I’m having to walk the dog in sub zero temperatures, snowstorms, extreme heat with humidity, inclimate weather….).

Morning walks are the best. Birds are twittering. Some greet me. Squirrels and rabbits are out. Sometimes the deer come strolling through.

Even so I find myself focusing on little things that most folks miss. Lost feathers. Honey bees. Unexpected hearts in unusual places. I like to think it’s God’s way of greeting me in the morning.

So what little things help you in your mornings?
