Last night, as I took a moment to write in my journal, the sun seemed to dance off my pen. The suns warmth found its way, right to the cozy chair, I was perched in.
There was a time in my life, where the sun could rise and set in the palms of my hands, and I wouldn't notice. I would walk without even looking at the beauty, that stood in front of me. I was a child who was finding her way, with eyes closed. But I digress...
I just wanted to take a moment to share the beauty that danced, right in front of me. I see it, with eyes wide open.
I appreciate the wonderful people in my life, who stopped what they were doing in life, to love me unconditionally. It made all the difference, in the way I see life. Loving myself, helped too. I dig that. ; )
One love~

Wonderful! I know what you mean, it's a happy person who can notice simple beauty of the world. But it does take a mind at peace to notice it.
It's easy to love you Empress because you ARE love...and for some, like me, your love has made all the difference.

Aren't journals fun? I love to hear the pen scratch across the page.
Lovely ...
I too stop to enjoy the trees blow in the wind and the sounds of birds singing ...
You are a woman of perfect clarity...all I have to do is stop by your blog and I get centered! Thank you....

I stopped to savour the flavour of old fashioned refrigerator cucumber pickles ... I had to dig out an old book to find a recipe that would make them taste like they did when we were kids ... it was perfect!
And here of course, I always stop here ...
one love back
love this!!! christina you are amazing! its so hard as adults to take a moment and let the sun shine in and REALLY notice it!!
thank u for that reminder!
It's when we forget to look around and see the world that we become unhappy!
You are not only seeing the beauty, but you have expressed a wonderful gratitude for those who have helped you find it.
The gift you have been given is passed on to all of us.
Thank you for sharing!

i love 'seeing' the world through your thoughts and writings - so peaceful, so loving, so giving
I love journals!!
Don't you just love moments such as these. I love when I hear birds sing or when the sun hits my perfume bottles on my dresser and it looks as if a tine rainbow is upon my dresser.
So lovely is your blog.
Just a lovely thought once more. Isn't is wonderful to notice what we notice?
i stopped what i was doing at work, and spent time looking out of my window, enjoying my sea view. very relaxing!
Yes, there are times when details are overlooked, because we're concentrating so hard on just surviving or getting through some tough period. Am so happy that you're now able to revel in the beauty in your life. xoxox
Thank for always sharing the sweet moments with us, Christina... That is the great joy in blogging, the sharing of the noticing. :o) Happy weekend ahead, my friend ((HUGS))
you are all about one love christina. the sunshine is coming off of you.
That moment is such a gift!
Ooooooh! I love blank pages right before we write on them. The way the paper gets all crinkly after - And your reflections fit right in there. You are a treasure, woman!
...ah that perfect moment!...and the ability to see it!...Beautifully captured!
i think too often we misplace the beauty around us...& im glad you had someone to help you find it...we all need those kind of people, or to be them!
your birthday cake looks A-MA-ZING!!!
have a lovely sweetly filled year!
Oh, I have missed you on my three week blog absence. Hello, dear friend. Hello.
Christina, I saw this lovely post today (http://www.beaphotograph.com/2009/07/in-the-newspaper) and thought you'd appreciate it. I know you share a appreciation for taking the time to talk to strangers ;)
I love to write in a journal, the crisp, white, blank pages offering you to write a story. I love that you have opened your eyes to beauty and let us take a peek. :)
It is heartwarming that the wonderful people in your life have given you the eyes to see magic. It's a gift they gave with out knowing and it a most precious gift.
It's good to see the beauty that surrounds us from time to time. I've always been one who appreciates the beauty that surrounds me. Now if I could extend that beauty as well as you do. Have a great day.
Isn't that fantastic....to love yourself!!! We draw us what we are!!! Sending you my love as I so feel it from you!
