While everyone else was chatting with friends, snapping selfies and running from one row of plants to another, this woman at Sunset Ridge Lavender Farm had a different approach.

She seemed to be in her own little world, quietly snipping her lavender and enjoying the beautiful early summer day. Here she is holding up her bouquet next to the ring they give customers to help determine appropriate size of bouquet.

I saw her several times and thought she looked so pretty in her hat and bib overalls. She also seemed calm, serene and content to take her time and enjoy the moment.

I liked her spirit.

If only we could all find such contentment in the small things and in the quiet moments. That is my wish for you and for myself as well. It may not be easy as every day isn’t a walk through a lavender patch but we can strive to find satisfaction in the common moments of our day.

Make this a great day, friends.
