enjoying the small things

Steam rose lazily up from our iron, the swish and spray of the washing machine was heard, flowers were gently placed on the table, small fingers tapped the key board, pencils bobbed up and down, someone lay curled up on the couch reading a good book, ducks quacked, and warped shadows and golden lighting smothered the walls, and while all this happened I captured some of this beauty.

eucharisteo.

Running.  Breathing.  Praising.  Sobbing.  Laughing.  Rejoicing.  Thanking.  

Jesus gave me this life so I'm going to use this life for Him.  Every breath I take is from Him, so every breath I take should be for Him.  Every step I take is a gift from Him, so I'm going to use every step I take for Him.  

I'm going to shout praises to Him.  Give Him thanks.  Rejoice.

Whirring -- moving at 432 mph, the plane glided while I sat with my chin propped up on the palm of my hand, my eyes wandering on views outside of my plane window... I passed a group of clouds, and captured their delicate beauty.  

(This picture has got to be my favorite one taken in june so far). 

 bluebells 

Reminiscing on spring... looking back at old photos. 

ecouter.

ecouter :// to listen in French

Music.  (It means so much to me... really.)

snowdrops.

They light up the ground, and bring a smile into my day.  

tins 

 I highly recommend you to get these tins...  They open and close and contain lovely little things. 

undecided weather.

... this English weather keeps on changing.  Some days I feel like wearing a warm, wool sweater and sitting down with a good book.  Other days, I'm feeling like grabbing my swimsuit and diving into a cool pool.  

(and in case you didn't know...)

;)

What about you?  What's your favorite weather like?

love,

                     (me) ... acacia
