beauty is there to be noticed
too often it is taken for granted
because
we are moving too fast
to let it in
and allow it to deliver its message in us
we need to pay attention
to show indifference to beauty
is an insult
to its Creator

You have no indifference to beauty, Susan! This is lovely ephemeral lace.
Yes so much beauty is there for us to absorb and admire if we only make the time to go slow and look.
So true! That's one reason I like doing a photo blog. I think it makes me notice the beauty around me more.
Oh, so lovely... and so wise! Part of my motto/guideline for the year is Live Slow. ;o) I don't want to miss anything! Happy Weekend, Susan ((HUGS))
It looks very frosty your way!

I am so grateful you always see the beauty and share it so graciously with us!
Oh yes Susan. I am praying that I will quiet my life and see with His eyes. Beautiful!
Thanks for sharing beauty as you see it.
How many blessings do we miss as we pass through without enough quiet about us?
Susan, have you read Shaw's latest collection? I haven't quite finished it but recommend it. Wonderful quote here.
I haven't, Maureen ... her book and yours are on my "wanted" list.
such bright fire among the white and branches...
You have helped me to stop and see the beauty around me. You and Nance paricularly helped me get the shot that is my my header.
Thank you, friend for this reminder.
The intricate intertwining of the branches is amazing and then there is that bit of red that a lot of folks would not see.
i'm loving all the snow
I love the unexpected red in this photo!
i believe you always see the beauty around you. this is amazing
Striking image . . . and I really like that last line. Looking through the lens of my camera has been one tool that's enabled me to see His beauty. God uses your words and photos to bring His beauty to our attention in a powerful way!
Gorgeous photo and,
WOW,
what a punch
that quote
is packing!
Thanks,
Jennifer
