The Beckoning of Lovely


Someone sent me this video, and I am sharing it here in the hopes that every person that reads this post watches this video. It's about 7 minutes long, and I know we're all busy people. So maybe instead of choosing to use that time to pay bills, talk on the phone, read your email or make your grocery list, why not utilize that time instead to sit down and watch this. You will be glad you did. You will be inspired by the difference one very brave and creative woman made in this world, in the midst of strangers, on a warm summer night.

Make the most of your time here.

  33. Today we celebrated my neighbors 98th birthday. I collect vintage tiaras so my kids and I brought her one to wear...I hope we made her day if only for a moment. She made ours very special, how could she not, she was born in 1911. This was a great reminder to me...I cried when the man gave the elderly lady the flowers. Thanks for the reminder.
