You Can Learn From Everything, Especially Nature
I guess you can tell from the name of this blog that I think that every day brings with it a myriad of lessons we can learn from. I think we can learn from everything.

Little Things Makes For Great Romance
Romance is something different for every person. For me romance is not about the big momentous occasions or gestures in life, but rather about the simple every day gestures. Romance is not the beautiful wedding proposal while surrounded by friends. It is not the beautiful engagement ring that sparkled away.
