About Beautiful Flower - India Arie

This is a song for every girl who's
Ever been through something she thought she couldn't make it through
I sing these words because
I was that girl too
Wanting something better than this
But who do I turn to

Now we're moving from the darkness into the light
This is the defining moment of our lives.

'Cause you're beautiful like a flower
More valuable than a diamond
You are powerful like a fire
You can heal the world with your mind

There is nothing in the world that you cannot do
When you believe in you, who are beautiful
Yeah, you, who are brilliant
Yeah, you, who are powerful
Yeah, you, who are resilient

This is a song for every girl who
Feels like she is not special
'Cause she don't look like a supermodel Coke bottle
The next time the radio tells you to shake your moneymaker
Shake your head and tell them, tell them you're a leader

Now we're moving from the darkness into the light
This is the defining moment of our lives

'Cause you're beautiful like a flower
More valuable than a diamond
You are powerful like a fire
You can heal the world with your mind

There is nothing in the world that you cannot do
When you believe in you, who are beautiful
Yeah, you, who are brilliant
Yeah, you, who are powerful
Yeah, you, who are resilient

You're so right about PS Linda. It is a scary program...lol. I need to get so much better at it. It is one of my goals for this year as well.
I am glad you like it my dear friend.
Thank you!

Ambitious is a good word to describe myself dear Srna, I am glad you can see that :)
That song is an amazing song and it was released for a very good cause, it was part of a fundraiser to help girls from Africa go to school. I am so happy you can appreciate the words. You should know by now how much your support means to me :)))))
Thank you!!!!!
Hugs :)

It is great to play with new tools Jen, I wished I had more patience to do so. I could easily spend hours trying to make this perfect but I just don't have that in me yet...haha. I am so glad you like it my dear friend. It means a lot to me. Off to enjoy the outdoors for a bit. It is a nice sunny day here today after much rain during the week.
Big hug and kiss,
Julie.

Your play in pc goes so nicely with the words of one of your favorite songs and that is the most what catched my attention dear Julie. Strong and "harsh" b/g and the flower in its forms to become brilliant, powerful, resilient ... good paintwork, it has no need to be softer, it is good just as it is.
Fantastic interpretation !!! :)))
My ambition Girl ! :)))
Hug,
Srna

Enjoy your Sunday dear,

Hey Julie... nice try my dear friend... especialy the petals of that very nice flower looks FANTASTIC...very closed to be a paintwork... actualy I could use a tool named smert, with that you can really use your PC mouse like a draw pencil and you can smert the spots of the green background area...just to be even closer to a paintwork...
Excellent!
best regards!
