“Look yourself in the eyes in a mirror each day.

You can ignore the small voice still inside you,

but your reflection will always have something to say.”

HAPPY MONDAY EVERYONE!

Thought I played a little with windlight settings today but I am not really sure I like the results.

I prefer more realistic tones for my pictures, especially for my sponsored blog posts.

Anyway, I enjoyed taking the pictures and listening to Julia's beautiful song, Mirror.

In other words,

It is good to enjoy the journey even if we end up not liking too much the destination once we

have reached it. But wait! Give it some time and when we look back we'll realize that the

destination was just as beautiful as all the others. ;)

Enjoy every moment. Stay happy!

Más Allá De Tus Labios

“And I feel the sigh of love

I heard the sound of love

I taste the fruit of love

And beckon, once more, for glorious

Laughter to dance from my memory

And sing skyward, toward you”

― Cheryl Seely Savage

Contigo En La Distancia 

- Angela Aguilar -

Hello Beautiful Second Life!

I come to you today from a very special place that holds some very beautiful memories of moments

spent there. Moments when I felt infinite joy. But as we all know sometimes those things that once

brought us so much happiness tend to turn painful and their memories become nostalgic.

I do continue returning to this place from time to time to revisit the memories made there.

However, they are bitter-sweet and I usually find myself back and forth between the smiles and the tears.

Welcome, this is Pemberley (Moderate)!

Flickr

Those memories continue to dance like butterflies among the white flowers and greet me

each time they see me. "Hello Lori, welcome back. We are still here, always waiting for you,

no matter the time." It was in this place that I first heard music by Dave Matthews while

friendly fingers played the guitar for me.

Now, it is always quiet and lonely as I explore the beautiful land. I want to say that I enjoy the 

solitude of this place, but not really. I long to see the familiar face and listen to the music of

Dave Matthews, accompanied by a good friend and a guitar. Nostalgia brings regret, wishing

I could go back in time and do things so differently, take a different journey, and start all over again.

But while life is sweet, sometimes it can be so unfair and cruel, and there are no second chances.

And with that, the only thing left to do is to continue the journey carrying the memories 

we made, even if they hurt, and now make us cry.

Thanks For Reading!

Much love,

Lori Novo

In Dreams With My Soul

For my Steppenwolf.

“There is nothing on earth more beautiful to me than your smile...

no sound sweeter than your laughter...

no pleasure greater than being in your arms. 

I realized today that I could never live without you.

In this life and the next, you’re my only hope of happiness. 

Tell me dearest love...

how can you have reached so far inside my heart?”

― Lisa Kleypas, It Happened One Autumn

In Dreams

~ Sierra Ferrell ~

Hello Beautiful World!

I am not the author of the quote above but how I wish I could express myself in such a beautiful way.

I took the liberty of changing a few words here and there to better fit my dedication of it to my

dear husband Steppenwolf. He always brings out the best in me.

Now, that is something we should always look for with the people we surround ourselves with.

People that can have a positive impact on our lives. We should be a reason for each other to smile.

As I said before, if I get to make someone smile and feel great about themselves, my day has been

a beautiful success. 

Be a light, the wind beneath someone's wings, and lift them up.

Brighten their days with a kind word and make sure that when you walk away 

you leave them smiling and knowing how wonderful they truly are!

Much Love,

Lori Novo

❤

and just as it came, my wave returned to the ocean

taking with it my newfound joy...

Dear Second Life,

I don't know how to write these lines.

I find myself so heartbroken.

Sometimes I... just don't want to be here anymore.

Today I lost another one of my dear friends and I just can't keep these tears inside.

My sweet friend.

He has decided to say goodbye

to Second Life.

All those plans for our beautiful friendship.

They didn't even get a chance to start.

They fell to the ground as they were barely taking flight.

Who will play the violin for the dancing doves now?

Who will play the violin and make me cry when the music

my ears hear reaches my heart?

I felt there were so many beautiful days ahead for us to share

and make beautiful memories together, dear friend.

Dear Sab, my dear friend

I will always carry you in my heart and when I hear a violin playing

I'll remember you and I hope at that same moment

You remember me too...

by Lori to Sab

in my heart forever my friend
