Something Beautiful About You

It is 4:30 am as I sit here at my desk, ready to drop some lines for you before starting this beautiful Saturday.

Hello Beautiful World!

I have always said that my soul is that of a midnight owl, or the essence of a witch,

because it is between the hour before midnight and the hour when the earth begins to get a faint glimpse

of light that I feel more alive. My mind is clear, my spirit feels light, my health is at its best, and...

I feel at peace and happy. I live while the world sleeps.... ssshhhh.

By the way, the song below is dedicated to my sweet husband, Steppenwolf.

Te Amo baby, PS!

Something beautiful about you

~ Joel Donnelly ~

“There is nothing more beautiful than someone

who goes out of their way to make life beautiful for others.”

― Mandy Hale

And that quote is so true; that is my Steppenwolf to me.

True beauty is not about ourselves; it is what we can do for others.

And a perfect example of this is how our beautiful Dolly Parton lived her life, R.I.P.

Always an angel to the world and to every person who came her way.

Did you know that she would always stand up to shake someone's hand?

That is how much she honored every human being. 

In READ MORE, I am sharing a YouTube video about her and Keanu Reeves.

It is truly a very beautiful and touching video that I hope you take the time to watch.

I am sure you won't regret it. ;)

Before I leave, I just want to let you all know that I have opened a new in-world shop with all

my new 2048X2048 backdrop texture sets and gachas. There are four Lucky Letter Boards with beautiful

backdrop textures to collect. The letters are set to change every 10 minutes. HERE is your ride.

I leave you now as the day begins to wake. It's gonna be an amazing day for sure! Just wait and see. ;)

Much love,

Lori Novo

Party In The Sun

“I believe when life gives you lemons, you should make lemonade...

and try to find someone whose life has given them vodka, and have a party.”

~ Hawaiian Reggae Day ~

Hello Beautiful World!

How are we doing today? I hope happy as a sunny summer day. ;)

Remember, happy girls are the prettiest; that goes for the boys too.

My Steppenwolf always tells me I look the prettiest when I smile. 

A smile is a universal hello, no matter what part of the world we are in.

It is inviting and most times, contagious.

When we smile, the world smiles all around us. The sun seems to shine brighter, and the sky

and the trees and the flowers smile back at us with their beautiful, lively hues.

The birds and the winds sing happy melodies that make our whole beings dance.

So what do you say and we keep smiling even through the storms, because we all know storms

don't last forever. :) So let's keep our most beautiful smiles shining today and every day.

And now, I leave you with this YouTube video (Warning* Explicit For Mature Viewing),

which is either going to make you laugh, as it did for me, or... 

make you feel very weirdly uncomfortable.

You just gotta watch it to see on what side of the coin you land. ;)

Make sure to read the comments. They are as funny, if not even more, than the video.

Steal My Breath Away

BLAST FROM THE PAST

“The diamond chandelier casts a warm glow across the shimmering silk dress,

spinning into romantic colors.

Rich bright gold, soft blush, and glittering champagne.”

― Kiana Krystle

Hello Beautiful World!

Today, I want to start the day by honoring a beautiful gown from the past.

This is the EMMA Gown by PURPLEMOON CREATIONS, designed by our very talented Second Life

designer Poulet Koenkamp. I featured this beautiful gown when it was first released back in November,

2014, in a blog post that I titled Take Me In Your Arms. Wow, how time flies! Good thing we don't get

old in Second Life. Unfortunately, fashion does. As you might have guessed, the gown is no longer

available. It was created for the classic avatar in five sizes (xs, s, m, l, and xl), like they used to create

fashion back then. So you would think there's no way it can fit on today's mesh bodies, right?

Well, I was shocked when I tried it on my Maitreya body, using the alpha mask that was included with

the gown, and it actually fit almost perfectly, just for a very minor detail on the top back, barely

noticeable, which can be easily hidden by wearing long hair. 

Now the gown is composed of several separate pieces that I can make copies of and use in other ways

for my photography. For example, with the flower adornments, I was able to unlink and modify them, so

I can make beautiful flower arrangements for my hair and matching bouquets. Now, don't think for a

minute that I'll be destroying the gown to create new things with the flowers. I'll be using copies of the

pieces I need for that. I have much respect for the beautiful gown and the hard work Ms Poulet put into

designing it. Not to mention that I still love it just as much as I did when it was first created. My

beautiful EMMA gown will stay with me for at least another twelve years. ;)

By the way, my hair is from WINGS (EF0208).

This is all for now my beautiful people. Have an amazing day everyone!

Much love,

Lori Novo

Hello Beautiful World!

Today I celebrate the tender softness that was created in me

I am not ashamed of my tears.

They do not make me weak

But they enrich the human that I am.

They are a sign and proof that I care,

that I feel,

and that I am very much alive.

Today I celebrate my tears of sadness,

they teach me to better appreciate

tears of joy.

Today I celebrate my tears of joy,

they teach me that joy is always found after the sadness.

All that is needed is patience, endurance, and faith.

Thanks For Reading!

Much love,

Lori Novo

Promise Yourself

"To be so strong that nothing

can disturb your peace of mind.

To talk health, happiness, and prosperity

to every person you meet.

To make all your friends feel

that there is something in them

To look at the sunny side of everything

and make your optimism come true.

To think only the best, to work only for the best,

and to expect only the best.

To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others

as you are about your own...

Walking On Sunshine 

- Pomplamoose -

To forget the mistakes of the past

and press on to the greater achievements of the future.

To wear a cheerful countenance at all times

and give every living creature you meet a smile.

To give so much time to the improvement of yourself

that you have no time to criticize others.

To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear,

and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.

To think well of yourself and to proclaim this fact to the world,

not in loud words but great deeds.

To live in faith that the whole world is on your side

so long as you are true to the best that is in you.”

― Christian D. Larson
