.. come with me to the beach ..

A day at the beach with a close friend… sunbathing, reading the latest mags, dipping our toes now and then in the ocean, loads of gossip and so many laughs… this is a great way spend a warm spring day.  Still not too hot and the fresh air is so enjoyable.  A cooler close by to ensure we have all the drinks we need and a dog to run on the beach with, what more could you ask for?

041817 wwinxandflair friendsThe pose for two avatars shown above is from Winx & Flair and called Summer Secrets. It is a great girlfriend pose and could be used at the beach, at the house, or in the grass.  It’s adjustable and easy to fit for both of our avis.  

Sometimes when you are at the beach, you are lucky enough to watch the surfers, paddleboarders and even skimboarders.  Occasionally, one of the guys might catch your eye and you spend the afternoon hanging out… maybe he offers to teach you to surf or you just enjoy watching him swim out and surf back in.  Either way, if you are enjoying, hopefully you have the opportunity to stick around and enjoy the sunset into the horizon – a beautiful way to end the day at the beach.

041817 senses couple 70 Pose FairThe above pose and prop are from ::: Senses :::, a pose shop new to me.  This set is Couples pose 70 and it is was perfect for beach pose.  The only adjustment that was needed for our avis was with the surfboard.  The board was transfer so I was able to hand it off to Sol for the pic which made it easier to adjust. 

Pose Fair 2017 is open now with so many of the amazing Second Life pose creators all together in one place to display their creations!  Both of the poses above can be found at Pose Fair 2017 until April 29th.

.. promise of spring ..

“The spring wakes us, nurtures us and revitalizes us.
How often does your spring come?
If you are a prisoner of the calendar, it comes once a year.
If you are creating authentic power, it comes frequently, or very frequently.”
    ~  Gary Zukav

Sometimes spring comes in so noticeably – the flowers pushing up through the top layer of soil, the buds popping out at the ends of the branches, the birds singing their beautiful songs in the morning air.  But sometimes the season has so many starts and stops and do-overs due to the lingering of the cold and icy winter.  In Second Life, we can celebrate the seasons we enjoy most at any time or we can create our own surroundings to fit our need or want.  I find that summer is the most popular in Second Life with autumn a close second.  Winter is fun and gets a lot of play in December.  We often bleed right from winter into a more summer existence… it is often difficult to discern between spring and summer in this virtual world and maybe even in our real one too… but spring is such a promise, it is often refreshing and new – the colors, the breezes and warming trends in clothing.  We should focus on spring… take the time to welcome it and savor that promise.

“The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity and an understanding of life that fills them with compassions, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen.”      Elizabeth Kubler-Ross
