Posted by jeffersonranch at April 7, 2007 1:26 PMGerard, Your words touch my soul. It is often the unexpected beauty of this life that is overlooked. Thank you for reminding me to look around. Have a blessed Easter.

Perfection.
Sometimes with wild turkeys or deer. God's special gift
Posted by Bob Sykes at July 28, 2009 2:45 PMWell.
Yesterday, napalm.
Today, nepenthe.
Lovely.
Like Bob, above - I seek the softness of my Ohio morns. Haven't had the TV on in days.
Posted by Cathy at July 28, 2009 3:55 PMAs a former newspaper reporter, I can report without doubt much of the news is "manufactured" and just as boring to write as read. But beauty is inherent our lives both large and small, if we but let it in.
On another note, Nepenthe is one of my favorite , Cathy, for beauty, and music and dancing on the deck...
Posted by Webutante at July 28, 2009 4:29 PMI no longer let anyone chide me for my genuine joys at viewing the sunrise, or driving a new stretch of highway, or taking in the expanse of high mesa for the first time. My favorite thing to say is, I've never seen anything like it before!
I likely have seen something like it before, but each moment of seeing is new because I am new at each moment. Or I should be.

Posted by Julie at July 28, 2009 5:00 PMA fine job of reporting the eternals. One can only add,
And that's the way it is.
Posted by Gagdad Bob at July 28, 2009 6:17 PMNews is completely irrelevant until someone crashes some jets into some buildings.
I tune in every morning to listen to the voices, and the drivel, then I turn it off, or not....
Posted by Gray at July 28, 2009 8:19 PMSuch a lovely read. I love waking to the sound of the doves early morning at my mums place in France. You described it beautifully. I think my fab Nespresso machine is considerably less romantic but it certainly makes a fine brew to watch the sunrise!
Very evocative Mr V. Reminds me of a lovely picture of the Pacific I grabbed from earlier this year

And yet, Sir, I must ask again as with your prior green ocean shot from a while back. How can this be possible to have the sun either rising or setting and still have a full moon just above the horizon? It's a nice photo, but cannot be true. Is that your intention? If so... Please delete this comment and forget I wrote it.
Posted by Galileo Boogliodemus at July 31, 2009 8:20 PMTo be fair, the green horizon showed a full moon just above the horizon and then stated that it was midnight. Again, how can that possibly be?
Posted by Boogliodemus at July 31, 2009 8:30 PMThe concept here is "illustration."
