Letter 4367
Walking, I spied a smooth, round stone. It caught my eye with its regularity.
I watched a starling perch on a small branch, hop to another, and fly away. I was struck by its perfect ordinariness.
I saw a moose browsing at the far end of the field, almost still as it stopped and looked into the distance. Its majesty overcame me.

Beauty lives in different forms and I do not have to walk long to find it.
Consider:
Can I see beauty today?
