LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL

when i realise during struggle and fear that i know ABSOLUTELY that i will make it, i will get through this and i will get through anything.

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL

sunshine bright maple leaves in their hundreds line road sides and woods. larch trees like huge candle flames shine brightly

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL

gratitude is my gateway to life's beauty.
i lie in bed with a migraine, i notice where the pain is, i notice how grateful and joyful i am to be able to lie here, to be comfy, for it to be quiet outside.

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL

black dark clear night skies, vivid moon and stars, waking up to the smell of frost. i walk by the river and inhale the cold river rising to meet the air.
evenings held in the dark, warmed by flickering candle light.

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL

watching friends who have been married for years still love to be with each other
