Beauty lies in the beholder's eyes

So many beauties in this appealing worldThe true beauty lies in the beholder's eyes
There is beauty in the child's innocence and in mother's love
There is beauty in a friend's affection and in a tender heart
There is beauty in a pretty smile and caring eyes
There is beauty in the morning sun and a rainy day
There is beauty in the flaky slow and a pleasant spring
There is beauty in the milky moon and the graceful rivers
There is beauty in a hard earned victory and a hopeful soul
There is beauty in me and beauty in you
So many beauties in this spectacular world and its dazzling life
And the true beauty lies in the beholder's eyes .

Time Tested Beauty Tips

For attractive lips,

Speak words of kindness.

For lovely eyes,

Seek out the good in people.

For a slim figure,

Share your food with the hungry.

For beautiful hair,

Let a child run his or her fingers through it once a day.

For poise,

Walk with the knowledge you'll never walk alone.

People, even more than things, have to be restored,

renewed, revived, reclaimed and redeemed;

Never throw out anybody.

Remember, if you ever need a helping hand,

you'll find one at the end of your arm.

As you grow older you will discover that you have two hands;

one for helping yourself,

the other for helping others

What Every Woman Should Have..
by Pamela Redmond Satran

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ....

enough money within her control to move out and rent a place of her own even if she

never wants to or needs to...

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ....

something perfect to wear if the employer or date of her

dreams wants to see her in an hour...

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE....

a youth she's content to leave behind....

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ....

a past juicy enough that she's looking forward to

retelling it in her old age....

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE .....

a set of screwdrivers, a cordless drill, and a black lace bra...

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ....

one friend who always makes her laugh...

and one who lets her cry...

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ....

a good piece of furniture not previously owned by anyone

else in her family...

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ....

eight matching plates, wine glasses with stems,

and a recipe for a meal that will make her guests feel honored...

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ....

a feeling of control over her destiny...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

how to fall in love without losing herself..

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

how to quit a job, break up with a lover,

and comfort a friend without ruining the friendship...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

when to try harder...

and when to walk away...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

that she can't change the length of her calves,

the width of her hips,

or the nature of her parents..

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

that her childhood may not have been perfect...

but it's over...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

what she would and wouldn't do for love or more...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

how to live alone...

even if she doesn't like it...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

whom she can trust, whom she can't,and why she shouldn't take it personally...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

where to go...

be it to her best friend's kitchen table...

or a charming inn in the woods...

when her soul needs soothing...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

what she can and can't accomplish in a day...

a month...

and a year...

I know it is old, and many have used it before, but it means something to me...

Enjoy,

Class Baby Bunnies Photo!!!

Bessie Bunny's Bed & Breakfast
Bunny Sitting for Your Special Rabbit Companion

Class Photo!

Baby Bunnies!!! So Cute!

Bessie Bunny's Bed & Breakfast is a Bunny sitting service for house rabbit families going on vacation or emergency trips away from home. Reliable, caring accommodations for your rabbit companion. Rabbits are housed in exercise pens (no free running possible as other rabbits are in the home) where they have room to run, and are given toys to keep them entertained and busy. A healthy dose of TLC is added, providing bunnies with petting or cuddle time - whichever they enjoy - to let them know they are in a safe and caring environment.

Baby Bunnies were photographed by North County Portraits (just a quick snaps since he know I find them sooo cute!!!)

Yeah for Bunnies!!!

Whatever you have forgotten, you can remember. Whatever you have buried you can unearth. If you are willing to look deep into your own nature, if you are willing to peel away the layers of not-self you have adopted in making your way through the tribulations of life, you will find that your true self is not as far removed as you think.

A Stunning Senior Moment!!!

Sometimes as humans we forget ourselves, and take for granted what history have done for us. So here is a little reminder ....

Monday Wisdom...

Freedom is not merely the opportunity to do as one pleases; neither is it merely the opportunity to choose between set alternatives. Freedom is, first of all, the chance to formulate the available choices, to argue over them -- and then, the opportunity to choose.

It takes a lot of courage to release the familiar and seemingly secure, to embrace the new. But there is no real security in what is no longer meaningful. There is more security in the adventurous and exciting, for in movement there is life, and in change there is power.

The Recession...

A Friend sent me this....one of those Forwarded Emails that never end and clog your inbox...
But this one was to cute not to share and since I feel in a cute mood today, here it is:

Due to the recession in 2009, the government will start deporting all the mentally ill people to save money. I started crying when I thought of you.

Run my little crazy friend, run!

Well, what can I say??? Someone sent it to me, and dammit, I'm NOT going alone!!?

Try to free yourself form placing a cash value on everything you have, so and say. Do what your hart tells you will bring joy, rather than determining whether is will be cost-effective.

Aqua Eyes Collection

Avoid Makeup Meltdown!!!

Santa Anna’s and summer are around the corner!!!!
The Sexiest season…well in San Diego its Sexy all the times, but there is always place for improvement!

There is nothing less sexy than smudged, dripping eyeliner or eye shadow that disappears under sweat. So during these times I would suggest a water proof eyeliner/eye shadow…

My favorite for summertime is the Makeup Forever Aqua Eyes Collection. Aqua Eyes is a two-in-one eye shadow and liner pencil that adheres to the eyelids and resists water even under the most extreme conditions, without running or fading

Pencils can be used together, alone, top, bottom, and in the inner lower lash. Its smooth texture effortlessly lines the eyes and, by smudging immediately after applying to the lid, it can double as a pigment-rich shadow.

Got to have it!!!

The more you see yourself as what you’d like to become, and act as if what you want is already there, the more you’ll activate those dormant forces that will collaborate to transform your dream into your reality.

Sephora Makeup Setting Spritz

Summer is coming, and with that all the sweat, oils, and makeup sliding off your face.

The more makeup you put on, the more it will slide, clump up, and leave you looking shiny, greasy and well just a mess! Not a pretty sight, and even worst on your skin.

One of the trick I have learned is to keep a bottle of Sephora Makeup Setting Spritz in my purse, one in my kit and well I might get one to leave in my car. I use the spritz throughout the day or photoshoot to keep the makeup fresh and avoid over shine/ grease, it helps keep everything in place, and the makeup lasts longer…less touch ups!

A Must have if you spend lots of time outdoors or in non air-conditioned environments.

Till the next one J

Within a spiritual partnership you learn the roles of love and commitment and trust in making your partnership work. You learn that love alone is not enough-that without trust, you are not able to give and to receive the love that both of you have for each other.

MAC Liquidlast

For my Product Wednesday I decided to use some of the new stuff Ibumped into...

I am preparing for an underwater photoshoot!!!

One of those shoots where the model is completely submerged, and has to hold her breath and look wonderful all at the same time!!For this shoot I have picked MAC Liquidlast Eyeliner, as my eyeliner of choice.
This is one of those eyeliners that have 9 lives!!!
What is beautiful about Liquidlast: Is’ long lasting, no smudge, no flake, goes on smoothly, it does not sting, and it comes in 16 different shades.

It is the perfect eyeliner for individuals with extremely watery eyes, wedding, funeral, or if you plan to swim with eye makeup on.

Fabulous!
