Beauty in the Ordinary

This is not about being brilliant, or extraordinary, it's not about wanting to be famous, or making headlines, or trying to impress...this about sharing a 'gift' each day with the world...to lift the spirit of people when they read this blog, to show them the beauty in the ordinary.
"And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don't believe in magic will never find it." Raold Dahl

    I'm with you J. Being British I always say Happy Christmas....try finding a card in this country that says happy not merry. It's impossible.

    I never gave Happy vs Merry much thought, but now that you've got me thinking about it, I'm kind of liking Happy :-)

    I would much rather be shot by you than some one who thinks I am trying to steal something when in fact I am taking photographs.

    The cursor is a little bit like you...adding a little sparkle wherever you go to whomever you meet.
