There is a book called Finding Beauty in a Broken World. While I haven’t read it, I LOVE the title. The title is a reminder for us to seek out and be aware of all the beauty that is right in front of us – even when the big, wide world seems chaotic and harsh. Oftentimes we get too focused on the negative or the busy-ness to pay attention. This theme runs through one of my favorite #yalit books: All the Bright Places. Yes, it’s a heartbreaking story, but the message I took away from it is that we have to pay attention to all the beauty (the bright places) in the world. Try it (before you watch the Neflix movie which doesn’t quite hit the same)!
