“To make your life beautiful, impregnate your thoughts with beauty.” ~Debasish Mridha
No matter what is going on outside, if our thoughts are laced with beauty, life will be beautiful. And we have the ability to choose how to think. Sometimes beautiful thoughts come naturally while other occasions we may have to work harder and make the choice to think positively.
“Fake it ’til you make it!”

“If we look at the world with a love of life, the world will reveal its beauty to us.” ~Daisaku Ikeda
If we maintain a positive attitude, we see beauty more easily and that helps further increase our positive mood and love for life. ❤
I love beautiful reminders like this!
Thank you for the comments, I still have a few to get to! I have been working more/later hours at work and it has been busy! It's an ice cream/water ice place and they tend to get busy in warm weather! So I have been posting here late and mostly just short posts. But I make it a point to post something at least once a day!
I appreciate every comment I receive!
Thank you so much!! ❤ 😀
Also, I have quite a few wonderful blogs to catch up on! ❤
Much love & light to you, I hope it's a beautiful day or night wherever in the world you are!
It's a lovely Spring night here in Philadelphia! I am so happy many flowers & trees have fully blossomed. It seems to have been happening gradually but then I just noticed today how they seem to have just appeared right before my very eyes!
When I saw the beauty of the green leaves, I was filled (and still am!) with immense gratitude & felt so much love and awe well up inside. ❤
Reminds me of this song:

“If a face could launch a thousand ships
Then where am I to go?
There’s no one home but you
You’re all that’s left me to
And when my love for life is running dry
You come and pour yourself on me.” ~ Bread (If)
Isn’t is just beautiful?! ❤
I hope you are having a wonderful day or night wherever you are!
I have been drinking sweet hot tea on this lovely, cool Spring day! ❤
😀
Much love,

“What a strange thing!
to be alive
beneath cherry blossoms.” ~
Kobayashi Issa
Spring is in the air! It has been a cold, cold (and rainy! <3) Spring, which I'm incredibly thankful for! I love the cold! But it's getting warmer now! And the air smells wonderful like fragrant flowers! The trees are blossoming quite beautifully with pink & white flowers. ❤ 😀
I feel so alive, full of wonder. ❤
I don't know what kind of flowers these are in my photo above.
But they are beautiful! 😀
❤
Much love to you,

“The most beautiful thing you can wear is confidence.” ~Blake Lively
I can’t (truthfully) say that I agree. Self confidence is beautiful but to me, compassion for others is even more beautiful. ❤
It's great to have both!

Much love & light to you, always! ❤

“The three great elemental sounds in nature are the sound of rain, the sound of wind in a primeval wood, and the sound of outer ocean on a beach.” ~ Henry Beston
Guess what today is? A rainy, rainy day! So magical!
I was out walking in it and the Earthy scents and beautiful droplets upon my skin is enthralling!
Just lovely! 😀 ❤
In honor of this lovely blessing I'm sharing some rainy quotes & a few of my pictures!
“Rain is grace; rain is the sky descending to the earth; without rain, there would be no life.” ~John Updike
“Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee, the small child, and the smiling faces. Smell the rain, and feel the wind. Live your life to the fullest potential, and fight for your dreams.” ~ Ashley Smith
“Sunshine is delicious, rain is refreshing, wind braces us up, snow is exhilarating; there is really no such thing as bad weather, only different kinds of good weather.” ~ John Ruskin
“The best thing one can do when it’s raining is to let it rain.” ~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
“Let the rain kiss you. Let the rain beat upon your head with silver liquid drops. Let the rain sing you a lullaby.” ~ Langston Hughes
My mom found my camera not too long ago so I been taking photos with it instead of my phone. My phone is full. And I won’t be deleting photos until I get my photobucket account upgraded and can put the pics on.
At first I did not really like my camera and thought my phone takes better pics but after learning to use it better, I love it! And it takes better pics than my phone!
❤ ❤ So thankful for it!
😀
I hope you are having a beautiful day or night wherever in the world you are!
Much love to you now & forever, ❤
xoxo Kim 😀
“It seems to me we can never give up longing and wishing while we are still alive. There are certain things we feel to be beautiful and good, and we must hunger for them.” ~
George Eliot
Yes, it’s so good to desire, wish for, and hunger for beautiful things! Sunsets and sunrises, beautiful weather, true friendship, a fantastic job, to see a great movie, a sweet adventure, to take pictures, to share with others, marriage, relationships, children, vacations…we can be thankful for all that we currently have, cherish it, love it, and still have a thirst for more. Being content and satisfied doesn’t mean we never want anything else. Part of living is desiring, hungering, pursuing…it doesn’t mean we’re ungrateful or not happy already. Different people and things can coax out different kinds of happiness and joy in us. ❤ ❤ ❤

“Kissing like a bandit stealing time underneath a sycamore tree.
Cupid by the hour sends Valentines to my sweet lover and me.
Slowly, but surely your appetite is more than I knew.
Sweetly, softly I’m falling in love with you.” ~Terence Trent Darby ❤
Wishing Well – Terence Trent Darby – mobile
“Wish me love a wishing well
To kiss and tell
A wishing well of butterfly tears
Wish me love a wishing well
To kiss and tell
A wishing well of crocodile cheers”
I’m wishing you much love & light now & for always!
Xoxo Kim ❤
