if only we could pause the world for moments -- moments like these! then we could all take a break, de-stress and try and remember what it is that is really important... laughter, love, friendship, fun -- and we could end this vicious cycle of create / destroy that is so inherent in our cultures... such a beautiful shot here, the wonderful light makes this soft and dreamy... so peaceful and soothing... simply essential and thus, simply marvelous. :)
