I made this blog to fuel my continued search for beautiful things in the world. But lately I know that I have been guilty of over looking them. we often get so caught up in ourselves and the drama of our lives, that we forget the things that are really important. School is not important. Boys are not important. Money is not important. God is. I've been struggling with that. With giving my worries to him. I asked myself the other day "How can I possibly get through this." I can of course, with God.

There are times in life when things seem so impossible. When the world seems to crash down on us, and we are lost somewhere in the chaos. But that is temporary. It is not everything. If he leads us too it, he will lead us through it. They are hard words to know, hard words to comprehend. But ultimately, there is always hope.

Today is one of those days that I want to shout praises to God for wonderful friends, wonderful weather and wonderful experiences. I am so immensely blessed, and it takes days like these to realize how much so. Thank you friends for being so amazing, thank you Michigan for the beautiful weather, thank you God, for all of this and so much more.

Things are feeling like there are starting to come together a little bit in my life. The last few weeks, so much was uncertain, this week, I am sure of so much more. I am so excited about the future, and about the present. Sometimes things are hard, but other times, things are so good, and the hard moments are worth it, if everyday could be like today.

Another new Blog. I have a bad obsession with creating new ones and then not telling anyone about them. I really don't know why. But I've got a feeling that this one is going to be different. I spent about an hour this morning on photoshop making the banner thing. I'm kind of proud of it. =)

My life has undergone some dramatic changes lately. My future goals and plans have changed, and
I am actually okay with that. It is a new start for me, and a better start. I have grown and changed so much as a person in the last few years and even weeks, and have realized a lot about myself and the wonderful support system that I have. Because of that, I am really excited about the plans that God has for my future.

I fully intend to embrace a new found freedom that I have found, and to recapture things that are important to me. One of them is photography. There is so much beauty in the world and so many wonderful moments that go passed and unnoticed, and I would love to capture more of them. That and the song by Needtobreathe "Something Beautiful" inspired this new blog, and I hope to share some of that with you.
