Inner Beauty

Taking time out for YOU I had the opportunity to meet some new friends over the weekend.  While I took  some well needed time to think and reflect on both my personal and business worlds. I would highly recommend for individuals to take time out of thier busy lives and give themselves time to think, especially in our current economic climate. I went on some lovely walks and just viewed the surroundings in a different way.  One evening when we were all sitting around the log fire, sharing experiences, telling a few stories and some jokes, Andy Smith recited one of the many poems he has written over the last few years.  He was kind enough to share this poem “Inner Beauty “with us and he has given  me permission to now share it with all of you. I look forward to sharing some of his other poetry in the coming months.  Thank you Andy.
