You Are Beautiful

“Beauty is important in this fragile life.”
Jan Karon

eggs black pt 073-1

It has been a beautiful weekend thanks to you my blogging friends. In quite the way of serendipity around the time of my one hundredth post my one hundredth follower came on board Olive Out. That is about eighty-eight kinds of awesome. Or should I say one hundred? Now I have 101! Really focusing on the numbers is not the right course I think. I should focus on the friendships I have made and they are many. We are truly kindred spirits.

As Jan Karon so well said beauty is fragile in this life and we on these blogs appreciate beauty in all kinds of people, places and ways.

You, my friends are beautiful.

Thank you for listening to my ramblings and putting up with my attempts at photography.

grace surrounds us
