“I’m caught up in the rapture of love. Nothing else can compare, when I feel the magic of you.”

RAPTURE, ANITA BAKER

Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the number of moments that take your breath away. Or so goes the saying. And if you live it right, life can often leave you in a glorious state of rapture. You know that ecstatic feeling of bliss, a moment of overwhelming, joyous emotion. Where eyes meet, souls touch and words fail.

There is a fair amount of whimsy in that moment of utter bliss, where you know that you’ve found the one. That one person, place or thing that you’ve been searching for. It’s a beautiful thing.

As a blogger/photographer in Second Life, I often aim to capture those moments in my photos. A look, a touch, a scene that will evoke that rapt feeling. And for this post, it was accomplished using the Rosenfax Hoop Swing by Raindale. This wooden swing, adorned with lights and flowers, comes complete with singles and couples animations. It is sure to add a whimsical feeling to backyard or garden. It’s available at Rally To Rescue, until June 20th, along with the Afrodita Ochre Dress and Headband by OPIA.

For the past 5 years, the Ghost Bullys MC has been working to raise awareness and support for animals in need. What started out as a fundraiser for the MC’s namesake dogs – the Pitbulls – has since become about dogs of all shapes and sizes that are in need of rescue! 100% of the funds raised by the Rally to Rescue Events will be donated to Animal Shelters!

So why not enjoy the rapture of retail therapy, and help raise money for a great cause at the same time! Visit my awesome friends at Rally to Rescue (OPIA, Raindale, & Shutter Thugs)! And a special shout out to NTD, Jess Poses and TZ Poses, who also sponsored this post. Thanks for reading! See ya next time! *Smooches!*
