…. that a vibrantly compelling, beautiful quality of beauty is that it begs to be shared. It simply can’t help itself. Indifferent or miserly grasps will not suffice in the least. So, here I am today. Passing along a bit of beauty.

The perseverant, patient and purposeful beauty in my husband’s wood craftsmanship.

Breathtaking landscape photographed & shared by one of my sisters. Yes, indeed. A picture that is seen, smelt, heard and felt. It’s nature, poetry and song all in one frame.

Tasteful touches spicing up a patio table at the farm. Gathered and artfully arranged in a simple way, our great {& gardening} friend produced this beautiful blend of warm autumnal harvest with joyfully fresh hints of the upcoming winter.

The beauty that poured forth from the kindness that was a lovely friend spontaneously dropping off a coffee with a bright smile and a “Happy Tuesday!”.

Hospitality of dear friends opening their home to us over the weekend and sharing a heart-to-heart chat over drinks {creatively built and presented with class} at a charming distillery.

…. Dear reader, don’t take yourself too seriously. Embrace the element of fun. Clean, wholesome fun is a thing of beauty.

Enlightening the heart with profound awe and renewing spiritual vigor, we’ll let St. Augustine have the final say in this post:

“Late have I loved You, O Beauty ever ancient, ever new, late have I loved You!”
