and every day.
“We can only be said to be alive in those moments when our hearts are conscious of our treasures. “
~Thornton Wilder
Beautiful quote to remember at this time of year when our hearts are a little fuller, our homes a bit brighter and our smiles a bit bigger.

Don’t you just love exploring beaches? Whether the sand is pure white and feels like flour, or black sand like in Hawaii, or rocky, or all shells as in this picture of a gorgeous beach on Florida’s western coast,having your toes in the sand and your eyes on the beautiful water is such an uplifting yet grounding experience.

opened in awe

inspiration pours out

and wraps you up in boundless energy

to create your life

attract more joy

be thankful

grateful

calm and steady~

The beauty

is all around

in the clams

the sand

my body

your hand

the mountains

golden sun

purity

one

the humbled

and honored

feelings

of standing in awe

and the

quiet joy

of

just
being

 

Nothing has ever been as easy

as falling in love with you.

Nothing so fulfilling

as feeling your breath on my cheek.

Nothing as soft as your skin, as bright as your eyes

as wondrous as your soul.

Nothing as meaningful

as your joy.

Nothing as precious as your

tiny hand

in mine

or seeing your tiny toes wiggle

or your sweet little giggle

Nothing can compare to this love

and I thank you for changing my world

to such a blessed one

…………and the stars said,

keep those wishes coming

for we are as infinite

as the abundance available to you.

………….and the moon said,

keep shining

whatever you do

remember that your inner light

shines full force

endlessly.

…………and the sun  said,

as powerful as you think I am

you

too

have radiating energy

bright and strong

Perhaps if people walked around with their eyes more open than closed, with their ears more alert than shut and with their mouths more closed than open, with hands that helped more and fought less,perhaps
they would see that this is a world is exquisite beauty.

Perhaps they would appreciate all they have even more.
Perhaps they would not throw that wrapper on the beach.
Perhaps this world CAN be a better place.
Perhaps……….one day
