Not much happens in my life. I work, I play, I laugh, I cry.
I focus on the small wonders of life.
A luminous leaf nestled in diamonds.
A strawberry jewel in the frost.
I have faith – even in the dark times – that there is beauty in the ordinary
And that life, in all its frailty, still contains the miraculous.
For more beauty, please visit: My World.
That is my faith, too, Fi. I always visit here to see the small miracles you’ll share – the best kind, I think.

You are so right, the large joys and deep tragedies fade against the little things in nature that gladden our hearts.
Frost is so exciting, I go out in the early morning in dressing gown and slippers and try to capture its beauty with my camera too.
The strawberry leaf is material for a fairy tale.

Frost “diamonds” — what a beautiful thought. Some people live their entire lives without ever thinking a beautiful thought. Can you imagine what that must be like? So desolate.
Your life is full of beautiful things and beautiful thoughts. Thank you for sharing them with us.
