Walking in Beauty Every Day
Each of our days is filled with choices. Do we turn towards the darkness of our fears or the light of hope? Let’s choose light, and in so choosing add a bit of life affirming illumination for us all.
I’m setting myself a challenge to find and share beauty unfolding around us each and every day.
