"You stand up for what you believe in, even if it gets you in the way of what others think..."

My photo
if i could use one word to describe my life SERENDIPITY seems to fit the space... i stumbled upon my husband during a time i shouldn't have and my story goes on from there... constantly falling or stumbling upon remarkable gifts and people who bring fortune to our lives... when we fall we learn and strive toward the next step.

i'm ready for this~


in the fall
a friend and i
took our children
on a little adventure
a hop skip and a jump away
from where we live
yet once you drive off the ferry
onto this quaint island
you are taken to a different far away land
where all feels
calm and peaceful

we drove without
 purpose or plan
and
blessed were we
to have stumbled upon
the cutest road side stands
all based on thee

honor system

a system of conduct
in which participants are trusted not to take unfair advantage of others;

A system, policy or understanding
based on trust in the honesty, honor,
 or integrity of others

 trust

have confidence or faith in

believe: be confident about something

hope: expect and wish

confidence: a trustful relationship

giving all a fair chance
 to do good by them
for all their hardwork

“The shortest and surest way to live with honor
 in the world is to be in reality
what we would appear to be;
all human virtues increase and strengthen themselves
by the practice and experience of them.”
Socrates

I just found your blog. Your writing is beautiful. So many things have spoken to my heart and my soul. I look forward to reading through your entire blog. I have a little island that I love to go to as well.....once you get on the ferry....you leave the rest of the world behind.

ahhh .... such beautiful images!! you never cease to uplift me when i'm low :) brings back loads of memories when we were students and that's exactly what we do. go with no plans, no destinations and always ... we would discover hidden treasures on the way. that should be life :))

Oh my goodness, your photos are gorgeous and what a wonderful outting with a friend! I wish we lived in a state where we could take a ferry to a little island. It looks like I may have to come visit you and do a special Farmers Market and The Find post from your neck of the woods ;)) Happy and lovely weekend to you :))

oh my, i am ready to be whereever you are with these amazing photos!

i am ready for the lazy days of sunshine, fresh air, blues skies and starry nights. i am ready for a lifetime in a beach cottage, mostly barefoot and in torn jeans. i am soooo ready.

off to the gardens for some photos ... cold, but sunny out and i am ready for all of that (and a child a tad fussy after her kindergarten check up and 2 shots - yikes! so who knows what this day will bring?)
