Zooming in on negatives – Quadrille dVerse Monday # 173

➰➰➰

It’s very much in our nature

Zooming in on all that’s going awry

Everything that goes well is taken for granted

While the smallest misstep is highlighted

If we counted every blessing coming our way

We’d be more cognizant of things going right!

  1. Girl Sadje, these last lines of your quadrille are so spot on:

    “If we counted every blessing coming our way
    We’d be more cognizant of things going right!”

    Truth well-spoken so poetically my friend. 😍🙌🏼🤗

  2. True, true, true. we tend to zoom in on what’s wrong for way too long. And make the wrong take us through the day. No wonder we’re stressed. Zooming in on what’s right with our world and in our lives is not shutting a blind eye; it’s where we have to zoom in to relax. Thanks for saying it so well, Sadje. Blessings.

  3. Clever title along with the ‘lens’ of how we see things. I remember reading something about beginning and ending one’s day with listing in your head or on paper three things of gratitude.

    There was a film artist who took to printing the ‘negatives’ or x-rays of images… and there was so much beauty to be seen 🙂 “English artist Nick Veasey is best known for using x-ray technology to reveal the deepest layers of his subjects.” Although I might be thinking of anothher artist who only did flowers…
