Beauty and Inspiration

       As the spring season looms over our shoulder we begin to spend more time outdoors surrounded by the art that's painted by the hand of creation and nature.
       What exist around us is a world of beauty we have the pleasure to be one with and make how we live a representation of how we view the world and our lives.
       Beauty is everywhere; in details both large and small that give us inspiration to create intimate spaces that reveal different dimensions of ourselves.  The colors of the sky, the grass, the flowers, the trees, the leaves and even manmade materials give us a well of ideas we can use to embellish our santuary like stew made with love.  No matter how humble or elaborate, there are a myriad of ways to absorb yourself in pleasure and comfort.
      I admire the energy and passion used to take the time to add to a world often left mundane and taken for granted.  There is something special about the effort and thought to extend beyond mediocrity and imbue the senses to make us pay attention to what's around us and allow the best of us to be shared.
      We are our dream and so seek to decorate life with light, color, texture, style and passion; exemplifying the love for being alive and surrounded by the beauty that ultimately is the light that lives within and shines through us.
