The steady flow of a river, the tranquility of a nearby stream, the crashing waves at the beach—these are all examples of how the sights and sounds of water soothe us. Take a moment to find a little calm in your life today.

In honor of the encore presentation of "Earth Love" this week, we invite you to share where you find beauty in your everyday life. For Jackie M. of Idaho, beauty is found in her friendships. She says: "I find beauty in the world in the connections between us all, human, flora and fauna. This photo is of thirteen women who are connected through many, many years of friendship and meet at this lovely little lake each year to celebrate our connections in a place where eagles fly, fish jump, duck mama's lead their ducklings around the lake. It's a magical, quiet little place where we can appreciate the beauty of each other, wrinkles and all, and the place we gather."

Share where you find beauty in your world!
