No, Lisa, I've never heard of that blog. I'd like to get the link to it and check it out. Let me know when you get a chance.

It must be gorgeous where you live, and you certainly take the time to notice the beauty around you. (I've always wanted to visit CO....)

Thanks for sharing a part of your life with me. As always, I love reading about it.

Cheers~

Thank you for your lovely words, Helene. Beauty surrounds us. Next time we feel badly, let's take a moment to see where the beauty is. It's there! We just have to find it....

Best always~

I'll have to remember your wise words the next time I get overwhelmed by something that gives off negative energy. Undoubtedly there will be something beautiful just around the corner to offset it. Beautiful post, as always, Cathy.

So much beauty in this post, in a variety of ways. Have you ever read Pat's blog, Mille Fiori Favoriti? (I think that's the spelling.) She wrote on NYC and shared the most gorgeous photos of her beloved city and state. She moved to my state a few months ago, and I love seeing the regional beauty anew through her lens.

What a shock on the meds. And what a kind gesture to be called back just to check on you.

The dog video? I, too, was surprised by the reporter not assisting.

I see incredible beauty every morning when I walk my dogs. Pikes Peak, deer, lovely women far older than I moving as briskly as their aged bodies can go as they, too, get in their double dose of exercise and beauty along the same walking route.

Thanks for your lovely comments, Lexie. I am so glad your troubles were taken away by turning on the computer. That really makes my day~

Best to you always~

Yes, Sheryl. Sometimes the beauty is hard to find. I hope that as I get older I will still be able to find it no matter what curves life throws to me. We'll keep on doing our best to find it, eh?

Thanks again for leaving your thoughtful comments~

Beauty is all around us, including good friendships and wonderful people. Yes, kindness IS beauty.

I'm with you on helping to rescue the dog instead of filming it. But, as you said, the main thing is the woman and the dog are fine. Beauty among the ruins.....

Thanks for your thoughtful comments, Donna.

Best always~

I'm so glad you enjoyed my post, Deni, and that it helped in some small way. I hope it will also help lift the spirits of your friend as well.

Thank you, as always, for your lovely comments and insights.

I wish you continued beauty in your life.

Best always~

You and I both quietly appreciate nature, eh? I'm glad to find someone else who places great value on all the beauty that surrounds us.

Yes, I would've dumped the camera, gotten the dog out and carried her to a safer place (helping the woman along as well!)

Thanks for leaving your comments. Best to you always~

So true, Lois. We need to find beauty in our lives because the world can seem so ugly and cruel. Finding what's beautiful around us will keep the joy in our lives.

Thanks for leaving your thoughtful and kind comments~

I was not even going to turn on the computer today but I was upset over something that does not matter and needed a mental break. Thank you for putting everything back in perspective. What a amazingly strong women she is and Thank God she and her dog are ok. I cried my eyes out at this video.
