Happy Holidays!

I know not everyone celebrates Christmas, so instead of a festive photo, here's a TED talk on nature, beauty and gratitude.  The talk has 2 parts, the first is about Louie Schwartzberg and his time lapsed photography of flowers.  The second part, which begins a 3:45, is a project he's working on called Happiness Revealed, with words from a child and a Benedictine monk.  The entire video is worth watching, but if you don't have time, jump ahead to the monk's part, at 4:53, on appreciating each and every day.
