Sad Smile...

Yesterday didn't start off very well. First I heard that the father-in-law of one of my good friends in Holland had passed away from cancer. He was only 68. I then read about a fellow blogger who just started battling that same disease and then I visited a good friend whose nasty cancer had spread again: bleeeegh!

But, as I was driving home from that last visit and was pondering all these sad events, I came across this little fellow and he was not by his lonesome, there was a whole herd out in the field! (no pictures of that I'm afraid) He made me smile and I told him he was a cutie...


And I started looking around me with different eyes and beheld the beauty of it all...








Big sigh and onward we go, for we must!

    Oh Marjan, wat een verhaal vandaag... heeeeeeel sterkte met alles!! Maar, ook mooi om te zien dat de natuur ons toch elke keer het mooie van het leven kan laten zien, en dan komt die glimlach gelukkig weer even terug! Hou je taai hoor, en dank je wel voor het delen van jouw dag!! Knuffel en lieve groetjes!!

    Nou dat vraagt toch wel om een hug, of je die nou wil of niet- Kanker sucks. Zachtjes uitgedrukt. Maar inderdaad helpt het om diep adem te halen en om je heen te kijken met open blik. Thanks for sharing!

    Bah wat een vervelende rotziekte is het ook!
    Is dat een pony met een bizon als voorvader? ;)

      Haha, een pony/ bizon mix! Daar moest ik om lachen! :-) Zowiezo moet ik iedere keer glimlachen als ik langs deze pony rijd, hij is echt heel klein met een enorm dikke vacht...

    Thank-you for sharing your beautiful pictures with us, I really loved seeing the horse or is it a pony? You must find it very inspiring where you live, those mountains are just beautiful.
