“Do not be limited by fear or narrow definitions, and don’t build walls around yourselves, but instead do your best to find kinship and beauty in unexpected places.” -Stanley Ann Dunham Soetoro
Look around you. There is something beautiful there and although it is not always easy to find, it is definitely worth searching for.
What I love about the photo above is how it captures the signs of abandoned territory that people came across and expressed themselves in a unique way, ultimately making something beautiful. And that is what we are all about: the search for beauty in the unexpected and serving toward the common good.
Please share the last time you found something beautiful in an unexpected place.

UPDATE
I posted that about an hour ago and I then came across this video that I could not believe I was watching as it was playing in front of me. This story is exactly what I was talking about.
