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.

a reminder to self~





“Things which matter most
must never be
 at the mercy of things which matter least”.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe


there is something
eerily beautiful
in a foggy filled world


one of those moments
i was so thankful
to have had my camera in my car


this
haulted me


in silence i stood
 thankful for this pause in time


a reminder washed over me
as to what makes my spirit soar


this was the day before the holiday
a day that felt i was surrendering to the "had to do's"
and being swallowed by the so many things left ot be done

when i stopped it kind of put life back in perspective
i didn't HAVE to do anything
i simply WANTED to

but in the big picture
it would not have mattered to anyone but me
if i had finished my list of things i needed to do

and so with this moment
as i stood
many things began falling from my list

and my mind was soothed
with ease

i hope you all had a bright beautiful holiday
filled with endless blessings upon you and yours

do you ever have a moment~



dec 1

DO YOU EVER HAVE A MOMENT

a moment that just fills you
washes over you
completely unexpected

well tonight

I HAD ONE  THOSE MOMENTS


as my littles and i were pulling out each ornament to dress our tree
one by one came memories from the years prior

one by one the ornaments were hung

as i reached in for another
my hand fell up this angel

not just an ornament
not just a gift
but a symbol of friendship

and then the emotions came flooding along

a sweet but sad reminder of each of you here
the friendships that were created
 these past few years

sad...meaning i have missed out on so much of your lives this past year
something i can not take back nor bring back

i couldn't help but share this feeling with you

because each and everyday
i do think about here
...about you...

 the friendships created

know this holiday season

i am wishing you all
 the merriest of merry days to come forth

SERENDIPITY~
is the effect by which
one accidentally stumbles upon something fortunate,
especially while looking for something entirely unrelated...
