Natural beauty....and it's free


I have never been one to get that much satisfaction from material gifts, the hype of "special" occassions or the planning to make things just "perfect". The un-expected, the chance timing and the surprise encounter has always held more magic for me and most people I guess. I realise that just as a child would, I still almost seek it, whereas others perhaps after childhood innocence fades begin to think that wonder and awe are reserved for only these early years, fantasy books and movies. How can this be? The Aurora Borealis just appears. These northern lights have no curtains up schedule, no pre-ordained time to appear, they just happen and one day I might be lucky to see them.
