Just enjoy life

It's the little things that make life big

Standing next to the ocean, only sound is the tide coming in, stars are lighting up the night, my family and I looking out at one of the most beautiful scenes, I realized I am rather small. It has been said before, that the best things in life come in the smallest packages. It is very easy to go through our life thinking we are large and in charge, but in reality aren't we all small? If we are all so small, aren't we the greatest gift? It seems to me that we don't give ourselves enough credit, we think our lives our predictable, but in reality we have no idea what's going to happen. There is something so bittersweet about having no control. I have always believed everything happens for a reason, but it seems to be more and more evident in my life. At this moment in my life, I have never been more happy, and I can not wait to see how God is going to continue this path. I wish I could stop time, and just enjoy how beautiful everything is at this moment, but I know God has bigger plans for me. If I could give any one advice, it would be to enjoy the little things, because in the end thats what makes everything so big, take a moment, and just enjoy life. After all, everyone dies, but not everyone lives.

New Season, New Attitude

Life recently, has been incredible surprising. Just when I think I'm starting to adjust to the way my life is falling into place, God reminds me I have no idea whats coming to me. Its amazing how beautiful life is becoming, growing up is bittersweet, but at the place i am at now its pretty sweet. I never thought I would be where I am now, this year has been the happiest year of my life, and its only getting better. Although I have had a lot of trials I never expected, it all happened for a reason. Over the past couple weeks, I faced my fears of dancing in public when showcasing in my school beauty pageant. I was surprised to make the top 15 in talent. It was one of the best experience I have ever done. I am getting ready for a beach trip, which is going to be the first, or at least the first I remember. I am finishing up my Sophomore year, and its going by so fast. I am beyond blessed, I have a healthy family, friends who love me more then I could ever ask for, and a promising God. When I hear things like the disaster in Japan, I realize how much I take things for granted.For the next couple of weeks, my focus is going to be on having a better attitude toward life its self. Spring and Summer are my seasons, and I can not wait to see what else God has in store. Have a blessed week!
