Missing the smaller things in life

15-October-2011 (Saturday):

Sometimes, everyone is so fixated on the superficial and forgets the inner beauty of things. Below is one example-

We were at West Coast Park to join some friends to fly kites.. and while there, Lee Cher was walking around looking for opportunities of shots. Already almost bored with the "kite shots", her eyes wandered and then focused suddenly on some colors in the leaves of the tree that she was standing under. She realized that hidden below the leaves, were showers of bluish-purple and pink. Soon, she was snapping away and managed to capture many beautiful shots of this flowering tree.

This little episode reminds me of something we all know but sometimes forget- the little things in life that we fail to see. In our busy pace of life, we only see the big picture, the surface. But look beneath all that, we may be pleasantly surprised.
