Thoughts, reflections to lift someone's spirits. We all need some kind of beauty in our life.
Anybody care to share anything that could lift someone's spirit, mood, if only for some brief moments in time.
I understand that in certain cases, it's not always possible. We have the jokes discussion, which I love, but we're not always looking for a joke, especially feeling drained, feeling down, there are other things that give us joy and beauty, like poems, quotes, a beautiful image, or an inspiring and moving video clip.
I need to see things like this myself from time to time, to know there is beauty outside our immediate problems.
It gave me chills and sadness to hear her story and witness something so beautiful from someone so young. Yes, I welled up. Amazing confidence to sing in front of such a large crowd...well, you check it...

In anyone is wondering what the translation is it's below; I didn't need to see the translation to know she was singing something so moving.
Here You Go
Listen to me, a wannabe singer
Talk about me, to your lovers, to your friends
Tell them about this girl with black eyes and a foolish dream
I, I only want to write stories that will reach you
and that's all
Here, here, here, this is who I am
Here I am, and even though I'm exposed, I'm afraid, yes
Here I am, both in the noise and the silence
Look at me, or at least at what's left of me
Look at me, before I hate myself
What can I tell you that other lips won't?
It ain't much, but all that I have, I've put it there
Here you go
Here, here, here, this is who I am
Here I am, although exposed, it's the end
It's my mouth, it's my cry, but hey, never mind
Here, here, here, here is
me, my dream, my envy, here's how I die, here's how I laugh
Here I am, both in noise and silence
Don't go, I beg you to stay for a long time
it may not save me, no
but I don't know what to do without you
Love me like one loves a friend that's gone forever
I want to be loved, because I don't know how to love my contours
Here, here, here, this is who I am
Here I am, even if I'm exposed, it's the end
Here I am, in the noise and in the fury too
Look at me, finally, look into my eyes and my hands
Everything I have is here, it's my mouth, it's my cry
Here I am, here I am, here I am
here,
here
Here you go
It's okay if this discussion fizzles out. At least I got to share some thing beautiful with you.
Thunderstorms do it for me as far as peace beauty strange as it may seem. Lightning flashes and the sound of thunder and rain yeah never fails.
That goes both ways: people who do good, and bad.
to slow down and enjoy the little things in your life.
It seems like a dumb quote at first but it makes sense to me.

That....and Rose Gardens!
By this I mean teach midgets math.
@Cover909. Are you under the bed when you're enjoying the thunderstorms? :)
There's beauty all around us and I guess this includes forces of nature. I must admit thunderstorms and the heavy rain does have a beauty about it, as long as you're in a same cozy place.
Even a little smile for one second, can lift. And you never know who will smile, somewhere out there, or who will find some wisdom in a sentence that leads to a happier, uplifting life.
Don't depend on anyone else ever. You have to stand on your own two feet.
I tried it, it works. I mean mindful breathing; not I've tried breathing.. :) otherwise I wouldn't be writing this.
“You don’t always need a plan. Sometimes you just need to breathe, trust, let go, and see what happens.”
