Sunflowers
I picked sunflowers today. My first time all year. They are my favorite flower. They are hard to pick. It's more like yanking and ripping. Today, I yanked and ripped sunflowers. haha! They were pretty all the same. :) It is a fun time indeed. I appreciate creation a lot.

Hey!
Just a reminder: take a breath. Take a deep one. Take a long one.
Everything is going to be okay in the end, don't you know? If it's not okay, then well..it is not the end, my friends.
Try broadening your perspective and being more optimistic.
If you need help doing this, turn on some singer-song-writer-indie-radio on pandora. Look at the sky and gain a better perspective.
You are lovable. You are worthy. YOU are full of hope and YOU are needed.
Guess what, friends? I am going to Mexico! I am excited for all of the simple joys and exciting endeavors that will come out of this adventure.
From seashell collecting, wave riding and sand drawing to laying by the ocean with a big floppy hat reading a good book with an Izze....I am in awe of this vacation already.
I am in the mood to sing. I am playing karaoke with my pandora station and all the songs that have lyrics. Try it some time. :)

Current State of Heart, Mind, Everything
Hi.
Currently, Ratatouille is playing and I had a delightful friend remind me to blog. I have so many drafts that I have created this week. Do you know how dissatisfying that is? To those song writers out there, it's like starting a song and not finishing. To those cooks out there, it's like starting to throw ingredients together and halfway through not having an essential ingredient.
Anyhow, I am starting afresh, where I am right now, in this moment. That's the moment that matters anyways, right?
"I know I'm supposed to hate humans, but there's something about them. They don't just survive, they discover, they create!"
A rat's perspective on us big giants. Let's be imaginative for a moment. Think. If this was possible, what would a rat, a dog, an anything think about us? Imagine that all animals love love love the Lord because they were created by Him and have not been affected by the world. Would they want to hate us for our laziness to God's perfect will? Would they admire us for our audacity and spunk to live fully and vibrantly?
It's a curious thought. Right now and for some time actually, I wonder how on earth I can walk in the power that He has given us full accessibility to. I want to represent Him and live out EVERYTHING He has called me to do.
In this moment, I don't know how to do that besides living selflessly and unconditionally despite the negativity that is "thrown" at me. Also, living lacking no faith. I mean, every day is not easy, but doing everything possible to fulfill the greatness within us is beyond important.
Girls, boys, women, men..oh people of the like..People are essential in your life. No matter what they do, what they have said, what they continue to do..Do yourself a favor and love them, cherish them, enjoy them. Life is a blessing. We must treat every moment like it is!
Oh my loves, have a good night. Treasure right now and pursue the feelings in your heart. & however you feel like you can, go deeper and wider with Him.
