THIS TED TALK IS 9 MINUTES LONG.   Cranky Old Lady has one wish for all the world: learn the lessons found in those nine minutes.  To Be with Beauty means to be aware, to be alive, to be grateful, to have a way to move past the pain and the struggle and the hurt that so often closes us to what we have been given.  Enjoy, learn, be grateful.

STAYING STRONG TIP. Cranky Old Lady  promised a Staying Strong Tip with each post.  Watch this, watch with family, with friends, alone.  Watch when the sun is shining in your life, watch it when you are standing dead in the water.  Watch it until its message is embedded in your heart.  It will help you get and stay strong.
