Today's Beautiful Thing is Life. Don't take it for granted. Today we buried my husband's Uncle Al. It was a somber occasion, but a beautiful one too. The Marines came and gave him a ceremony befitting a man who served his country with honor. Tonight we look back on Uncle Al's life and are grateful to have known him. He was a man of varied interests and talents. A Marine, police officer, forest ranger, professional dancer, wine connoisseur and world traveler. The world was a better place because he lived and my husband is a better man because of his advice and guidance. God Bless you Uncle Al.
In honor of Atticus, a beautiful Boxer boy whose time with us was much too short. This is my attempt to find something Beautiful in every single day. If a scarred and abused dog could fearlessly wag his tail and smile at strangers hoping to make friends, surely I can find one thing Beautifully noteworthy to write about daily in his honor. This is my tribute to his kind and gentle spirit. ~Celebrating three years of daily blogging on 1/20/10~
