		<title>That's how I am . . .</title>
		<link>http://www.flickr.com/groups/1343002@N24/</link>
 		<description>Here in this group, we may add pictures, which show and emphasize the following concepts:

-&amp;gt; being ourselves &amp;amp; how we trully are
-&amp;gt; how we live and think and mostly
-&amp;gt; how we feel

It is created for women and we'd be honored to host here pictures of those, who devote their lives in making Everyday Life Worthy.
It is very important, that we keep a positive attitude towards life, eventhough it is often full of difficulties and missfortunes. So the emphasis here is on accepting these moments, as part of life and concentrating on celebrating its happy moments. 

This way, we are hoping to group here a collection of pictures, where the beauty of moments is celebrated and/or the way in which we have managed to deal with a negative situation or feeling, in a positive way.

So let's see, what could possibly be included as a picture here:

-&amp;gt; pictures of ourselves, communicating aspects of our personality &amp;amp; everyday life,
-&amp;gt; pictures communicating fellings and thoughts,
-&amp;gt; captures of precious moments,
-&amp;gt; evidences of creativity, compassion, love, happiness and other meaningfull 
     expressions of living
-&amp;gt; evidences of acting positively to deal with life's difficulties and last but not least
-&amp;gt; the funny side of life and humourous instances!

As the pictures here will be mostly a means of focusing on the inner self and introspection, explanative descriptions, which don't necessarily need to be long, are in a way necessary, so that discussions can arise and opinions can be exchanged.

So, to all of us, creative women, imperfect but each of us beautiful and special in our own unique ways, having decided to see mostly the bright side of life, standing for our beliefs and been interested in spreading some positivism out there, in what seems to be very often a troubled world, welcome, we are honoured that we are and that we have you here!

Taking the responsibility of our lives, finding the strength in sensitivity, celebrating the gift of life and being born a woman!

&lt;p&gt;Hello!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So very happy to have been invited to this group!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@CozyMemories: I'm in Southern France too!&lt;br /&gt;
and yes, it's a bit grey and cloudy... but I don't care, I have friends to meet, fun things to do today, and also daffodils on my dining-table!&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Happy Spring to you too ! :)&lt;br /&gt;
thank you so much for the invitation, I'm honored to be here &amp;amp; hope to be posting appropriate photos.&lt;br /&gt;
Even though I'm in southern France, it's grey &amp;amp; rainy today, but it's not cold, so it really feels like a transition between winter's cold &amp;amp; summer's warmth.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;p&gt;March the 21st ....and Spring is finally and officially here!&lt;br /&gt;
Eventhough, I'm writing these lines, having woken up in a rather winter, or autumn grey, cloudy &amp;amp; rainy day...coming here to wish us all  Happy Spring wasn't discouraged.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is again one of these moments that we simply have to take life as it comes....so there'll be a lot of household chores taking place and crafting for my Etsy shop as well....taking advantage of the fact that this'll be mostly a day spent indoors.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How are you spending the 1st day of the Spring?&lt;br /&gt;
What feelings can you notice?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Happy Spring to all!...and...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
before I go...let me ask you kindy to read carefully the description of the group and the kind of pictures that we'd like to see here.&lt;br /&gt;
Do care about  writing   d  e s c r i p t i o n s, as we focus on communicating how we feel and our thoughts....&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Copying here, part of the group description:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot; As the pictures here will be mostly a means of focusing on the inner self and introspection, explanative descriptions, which don't necessarily need to be long, are in a way necessary, so that discussions can arise and opinions can be exchanged &amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
