Ocean

Hello lovely ones.
I am here, just for a moment - I'm actually really busy right now (Ha!). I should be finishing my unit operations lab report right now, it's almost done... well, kinda. :P But ---- I can't bring myself to keep working on it right this very second, so I'm taking my break to say "Hello."

At this very moment, I'm exhausted.

I wanted to reach out to anyone and everyone that no matter if this is a hard time or a good time, count your blessings, for each of us has the sunny days and the rainy days of life. There is beauty in both but we must cherish the good and bad to fully appreciate life.
Count the blessings: loved ones, passions, memories, friends, family, animals, the little things... all of it.
And remember that you are never faced with something that you can't get through one way or another.

I may be tired but this song explains how my soul feels deep within...
The song is called "Ocean" by The John Butler Trio.
If I close my eyes, I can see the waves crashing.. I picture just me and sandy beach and the ocean. & being from the Pacific Northwest, my beach is a cold beach... but I love it anyway. Peace.

 Enjoy. Breathe. Live. Love.

A Deep Breath

We all have those weeks that seem to go on forever, where everything is just harder to deal with. It can really get a person down - days or weeks like those. I've had my fair share, of course, and this past week was one such week (and to be truthful, the upcoming one doesn't have much promise of being any easier).

BUT! The true nature of the week can be controlled by how we approach and accept the events within it. I have to remind myself that it's just a day, just a week and in the big picture of life both my past and my future are bright, glorious, exciting, and full of joy. This is the nature of life! All of our lives are beautiful and overall, in the big picture, our lives are truly awe-inspiring - every single one. 

Smile, breathe - it's all gonna be okay.
