well, i'm having one of those moments where i'm realizing the incredible blessings in my life. first of all, i'm surrounded by beautiful, amazing people here in townsville as well as encouraged and loved by family and friends at home and all around the fricken world. why is it that sometimes all i can see is my circumstances? sometimes i just stew in my insecurities, doubts and fears...oh, it's hideous! i am surrounded by beauty...completely...on all sides! and if the beauty of people isn't enough...there are colors and trees and leaves and gorgeous hues in the sky...there are sights and sounds and smells...like the smell of coffee...oh, i love it!

so here's to the belief that life is beautiful and i'll be seeking to see that beauty more in my life...
