as my 63rd birthday approaches, i'm coming to realize more and more the wisdom of celebrating the beauty of ordinary days. i'm learning to take pleasure in the smallest of the unexpected. the truth is that not every day will be marked by events momentous. today has already been a blessing to me. flipping through pictures posted by a facebook friend i happened on a picture of my darling daughter. captured for all time, unaware of being photographed, even in profile, her magnificent smile and the radiance of her beautiful soul emanate from her visage. be ever alert as the bonus moments in your life may pop up anywhere and at any time. have a great hump day everyone. aio
