November 13

I am grateful for beauty, not a vain beauty but the beauty that surrounds us, the fall colors, the spring flowers the snow capped mountains, buildings built with detail and care. I get to drive up capital hill everyday and while the dawn is barely breaking I drive down and see the entire salt lake valley, the capital the utah skyline, the street lights forming a perfect grid, the great salt lake, all nestled in beautiful purple mountains. I then continue down State Street and drive past the temple and beautiful temple square. I am so grateful for the beauty that surrounds me every morning.
