The simple things



 The sun against your face, lying in a hot bath, first sips of a frothy latté, a warm hug.  As Laura Wilder said, I am beginning to learn that it is the sweet, simple things of life which are the real ones after all.  Tomorrow, you wake up with only the things which you gave thanks for today; what are those things?  Give thanks.  Embrace little moments; celebrate the mystery of now. 

My reminder for today?  Life is going to get bad and busy sometimes (you know it) so keep your chin up and thank God for every little blessing He has poured into your day.

PS I've been adjusting to a busy semester at university and have been struggling to find the right words to post, but I'm collaborating with a lovely girl & a new design is on the way.  Keep an eye out for some happy changes around here.

  9. You have a beautiful blog. And I know how it goes with trying to find the right words when being overwhelmed with school and changes. Hang in there!
    P.S. Would you ever consider doing a post about what it's like living in New York? Or have you already (since I'm new here)? I recently visited New York and really loved it. Pretty much anything related to that city is interesting to me right now. :)
