Create with love, honesty and gratitude.
After reading Brene Brown’s book The Gifts of Imperfection I am trying to practice gratitude to access joy. To notice those little things that make my life complete.
Using Kim’s preset autumncopper in Lightroom and a texture (test kitchen June collection ‘dive’)
Linking with Texture Tuesday
Lovely reflections on the water.

I think you always create with love Viv and it is always shows in your work just as the above image shows in the reflection. I don't remember the preset of Kim's but it sure is nice here. So lovely Viv.

This river spot under the tree needs just one more thing – a gentle rocking canoe to relax under the tree, and a good book to read. Lovely!!

What a peaceful place! Yes, gratitude can do wonders for our emotional and mental well-being. We do have much to be thankful for … if we just stop to remember.

Lovely photo, and will have to checkout this book. Have not read it. Noticing the little things of life make our level of abundance come to a totally different level. I loved sarah ban breathnach's SIMPLE ABUNDANCE. Makes such a difference in our lives
