Word Up #59: BEAUTY

Beauty. the quality present in a thing or person that gives intense pleasure or deep satisfaction to the mind.  It is often said that beauty is in the eye of the beholder.  I understand this but i think there is something more.  I think that everything in life can be beautiful.  We just have to look for it, to find it.  And then most importantly we have to appreciate it. Even in our ordinary, day to day lives.  It can be a simple smile, a lovely dress, a hug from a child, a comfortable home, sweet words, and so on.  All this can just be so beautiful.  Life is beautiful if we just see it for all its potential. 

The longer I live the more beautiful life becomes. If you foolishly ignore beauty, you will soon find yourself without it. Your life will be impoverished. But if you invest in beauty, it will remain with you all the days of your life. Frank Lloyd Wright

So what is beautiful to you today?

We have a fabulous Label Tulip Kit up for grabs this go around.  One lucky winner will get this awesome, jam packed kit, Over the Rainbow!
