Life is a Special Occasion!
Hallmark
Today we celebrate Turn Beauty Inside Out Day, a day of celebrating Inner Beauty, the beauty of conviction, caring and action. This day serves as a reminder that inner beauty is more important than outer beauty. On this day people challenge the usual definition of beauty as portrayed in popular media and advertising by recognizing the wonderful actions and attitudes of people who are beautiful on the inside.
If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Beauty is how you feel inside, and it reflects in your eyes. It is not something physical.
Sophia Loren
While it may be obvious that physical beauty is skin deep, most of us know true, breathtaking beauty comes from a certain quality found within a person. I think that if you are a beautiful person on the inside it is then when you are truly beautiful on the outside too. I’ve known some that had outer beauty that were not beautiful people at all. They only thought about themselves. I’ve also known some rather plain looking people that were the most beautiful people in the world to me.
Inner beauty is unique to who you are. It sets you apart and makes you standout. Beauty on the inside is what counts. What makes a person, anyone, attractive, is the type of person they are, not what they look like.
Here we are in the middle of another week already. Monday was a beautiful day. Tuesday started off with some rain and today may just be another rainy one here. Still and all it’s a beautiful day. Appearances can be deceiving. The weather outside is not going to make or break this day for me. Cause you all should know by now I carry my own sunshine with me wherever I go…
The weather man says that after a coolish but dry Thursday and Friday we could potentially have a triple star weekend with milder temperatures and sunshine! That is great news for all of us as we do have a triple star weekend planned with a birthday party, a baptism and a baby shower !
Today’s pictures are of some sunny days in the past.
Hope you all have a beautiful wonderful Wednesday!
God's Beauty Tips
Please consider . . .
For attractive lips, speak words of kindness.
For beautiful eyes, look for the good in other people.
To lose weight, let go of stress, hatred, anger, discontentment and the need to control others.
To improve your ears, listen to the Word of God.
Rather than focus on the thorns of life, smell the roses and count your blessings, giving thanks for each one of them.
For poise, walk with knowledge and self-esteem.
To strengthen your arms, hug at least 3 people a day; Touch someone with your love.
To strengthen your heart, forgive yourself and others.
Don't worry and hurry so much. Rather than walk this earth lightly, walk firmly with determination and leave your mark.
For the ultimate in business, casual or evening attire, put on the robe of Christ; it fits like a glove but allows room for growth. Best of all, it never goes out of style and is appropriate for any occasion.
Doing these things on a daily basis will certainly make you a more beautiful person.
Beauty really is an inside job.

COUNTING MY GIFTS
Taking joy in living is a woman’s best cosmetic.
Rosalind Russell
I have counted at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for over a year and have now reached over 1600 gifts. On my way to 2000. I'm not stopping, but will continue on counting. There is always, always something to be thankful for.
1688. for all the beautiful people I know, you all are a true blessing to me
1689. for a beautiful day
1690. for sunny smiles and sunny dispositions
Enter into His courts with thanksgiving — and in His presence is fullness of Joy!
PRAYER FOR OUR TROOPS
Please pray for God's protection of
our troops and HIS wisdom for their
commanders.
Lord, hold our troops in
your loving hands.
Protect them as they protect us.
Bless them and their families for the
selfless acts they perform for us
in our time of need. I ask this in the
name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior.
AND bless our Police Officers, Firefighters
and Paramedics and EMT's
GOD BLESS YOU ALL !
I’ve never seen a smiling face that was not beautiful.

I love God's beauty tips; those I certainly want to follow! So true, Ma, about inner beauty, and we definitely know God looks at the heart more than outward appearances. What a fun weekend ahead! Busy for sure!
betty
What great advice, MA... thank you!
Pam, I am playing catch up again. I love how we always seem to be in sync with our posts. Just shows great minds think alike! Some of the most beautiful people I know would not win any beauty contests from the outside, but their inner beauty shines through and makes them the most attractive people to me. You cannot underestimate the value of a beautiful soul! xxoo
Love all your flower photos... We'll have one more day tomorrow of 80's and then we are back to the high 90's for the weekend... Happy Wednesday!! :)
I also am amazed that we seem to think alike (like Marie said in her comment)! If you look at my post, I have a sunflower at the top of my post!!
And I lOVE God's beauty tips, I have never read that before, and I LOVE it. Thank you! xx
