HP, I see it from far away too, often, and get depressed. Gotta come back, feet on earth and let her send us healing, just like the well wishes we send to earth and earth people. You are so right, notice the beauty, find it.
I had a cool experience working in a psychic skills class with a group of ladies almost 10 years ago. The teacher led us on a guided meditation to meet a spirit guide. We all shared our stories after and all were so intense. In mine, I met a large male lion who cuddled me next to a beach bonfire. The teacher told us we can ask our guide any question we want, I asked him, why am I here do I have a purpose. He smiled and loved me and said, You came here to create more beauty in this world. I still smile remembering that.
