Our Beautiful World

Good morning...

The prompt this week at Our Beautiful World is

'Beautiful'

Simple, or is it? There are so many things in our world that are beautiful but some can not be captured in a photograph... 

You can photograph the beauty of nature


 The colours and the delicate petals of a rose... But not the scent
The first show of blossom but not the joy that Spring brings...


The wildlife that visit and thrive because of these beauties




And the funny little habits of some of those visitors that both annoy and yet make you smile


But you can't photograph the beautiful relationship of trust and love
Not many would think Ginger was beautiful when we took him in



His eyes so sore and the sadness of being mistreated and unloved evident... And now?


Now you can see his beauty was always there... 

My last dog Holly was about to be put down till I found her in the RSPCA,  dirty and neglected, ribs broken from beatings ... 2 years later, just look how beautiful she became... 



Sometime you have to look beyond the surface to see beauty, sometimes the most beautiful things are only felt in our hearts...

Enjoy your day

Incredibly beautiful post, my sweet friend--brought tears to my eyes. You could be a writer as well as an artist! Love all the pictures, but Ginger & Holly reach my heart!

Beautiful post, it is even more awesome that we have the similar story this week for our beautiful pet!

Your flower photos make me long to see the garden turn bright again, and your words remind me how deeply I feel it when I sit out there on a quiet day. It's extraordinarily painful to see a neglected and abused creature. You're an angel to those you rescued, Ros.

Truly beautiful stories of your loving animals! Yes, nature is also, indeed, beautiful in so many ways, but relationships outshine them.
