The Simple Life - 7/17/2007 2:31 PM ( #1 )
The following link is to a PowerPoint slide presentation, so if you don't have PowerPoint or a capable conversion program to convert to another format, you may not be able to enjoy this beatiful presentation. This is a file download, so when a dialogue box pops up, you can either open the file with PowerPoint or another program if you can convert it, or save the file to your computer.

Enjoy!

It's working for me, but I'm using OpenOffice, not Microsoft Office.

Guys, right click the link, and choose save as. The best place to put it is on your desktop. When it's there, you should be able to double click it, and it shoudl open in Powerpoint.

Thank you Solomom
 
Today I am grateful for the sound of rain as I type.  We have had it very hot and dry lately; it all depends on your perspective.

Thank you, Solomon! I played around to find the file under recently downloaded and then sent it to My Documents. It finally appeared on the list of Power Point presentations and I was able to open it. This video is certainly worth the trouble! I really enjoyed watching it!

Peace and joy!

Sorry I've been so late in replying lately. Aside from being very busy, professionally, I've been intently working internally, too. I'll write more about that later.

For those of you that were/are having trouble with the slide show, you can also 'Open' the show, directly. When you click the link, a dialogue box pops up asking to 'Save' or to 'Open.' If you choose 'Open' and you have PowerPoint installed, it will load that program and run the slide show automatically.

One of my favorite pics (probably of all time!) is one of the first on this show. The one where a person is holding the sun. It's a profound image, to me, because it embodies how crucial different perspectives can be. Although I'm beholden to the idea that a person cannot, in fact, hold the sun, I love the idea there are other ways to embrace it.

Hi Arow,
 
I look forward to your work on inner you!
 
I wonder why some of us with Powerpoint can open your link and others can't? I've tried several times without success.  J

Hi Arow again!!!!! I left the page open for the slide show..........and low and behold........when I went back to it, there it was...open. It had just taken a long time to load and my PC is running out of memory. What a treat, and I agree, the picture of the man holding the sun is just stunning.
 
I just needed to be more patient.   J

I just saw the slide show.  What beautiful photographs.  I'm especially moved by the picture of all the bichon puppies. I used to have a bichon, for almost 17 years.  I still can't see them without getting teary-eyed.  He was a wonderful companion.  And I love the spectacular pictures of lightning, and the aurora borealis.  I have several friends I'm going to share this with. Thank you for sharing it with us.

Good Morning,Dove,

Welcome to the forum. I am so sorry to hear about Connor. Know that he will be held in prayer each day for complete healing. May he and all his family be made whole again.
