It's easy to carry on with the rush of every day life and forget to take a minute to enjoy all the special little moments.Sarahhttp://lostvestige.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3909657104905415896.post-29638365172007691812014-10-01T20:32:51.993-05:002014-10-01T20:32:51.993-05:00I think there is a lot of truth in your words.

That's why I think it is so important to embrace the little things in life, and your photographs remind me of those precious moments in time.Lucyhttp://thecarnabetianarmy.blogspot.com.au/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3909657104905415896.post-40093056710479309842014-10-01T15:06:43.299-05:002014-10-01T15:06:43.299-05:00It's funny, although I'm a vintage girl th...It's funny, although I'm a vintage girl through and through I've never looked back on times past that I never even lived as being better to actually live in, I just prefer them in terms of music and fashion. I always can't help but think of all of the inequality and political issues, the rights we take for granted nowadays that would have been denied to so many back then. We still have leaps and bounds to make in these areas and I prefer to look forward rather than back. So I entirely agree with you, it's so easy to have a "grass is greener" mindset but it's so important to step back and see the full picture. You in particular Abigail are a perfect example that life is what you make it, and that if you look for beauty you will see it all around you as shines through in your photographs.Faye Carolinehttp://www.oh-darling.net/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3909657104905415896.post-81699983215461189322014-10-01T14:40:50.224-05:002014-10-01T14:40:50.224-05:00I agree!

You will refer to these as the good old days. These times are especially good because you have your youth and your health. They are gifts that too many people take for granted. Believe me, now's the time to take good care of yourself. Live clean. Live right. Maintain a wholesome discipline. Get plenty of fresh air and exercise. Do everything you can to stay fit, healthy and drug free. If you take care of your body today it will take care of you tomorrow, meaning 50 years from now and you will thank yourself. I know you well by now, well enough to realize that you are already doing these things. I admire you tremendously, Abigail. I hope you are having a fabulous week. Please give Daisy a treat and a pat on the head for me.Shady Del Knighthttp://www.shadydell.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
