1,001 things to be thankful for.

As I was driving home the other day, I happened to notice the beautiful and bright blueness of the sky, which was peaking through the big white clouds. It was such a crisp and wonderful colour, it immediately brought joy and thankfulness into my heart.
The beauty of the sky and the beauty of all nature is one of many things that should never be overlooked; yet as humans, we do just that.
As I reflected more on this, I realized there are so many things I really am grateful for. Some of these things are small; like that colour of the sky, while others are much more.
I too easily get caught up in the sufferings of this world and complain about the things that I don't have that I often loose track of what is important... Being thankful for what I do have... Enjoying all the little moments in life, not focused on the bad, but focused on the Blessings.... Living life for the Lord, to its fullest (and having fun all the while)... These are all things that are important to me.
Maybe this world could be a better place, if each of us were to become a little more thankful with each passing day.

What's your style?

A friend of mine came to town for a visit last night. It was delightful to see her. As I sat and reflected this morning on our lovely visit last night, I came to the realization that she is a hipster. Pretty much everything about her is hipster. She not only dresses like it, but she has the personality for it.

I laughed at myself a little, thinking its funny that it took me so long to come to this realization (we have been friends for a looong time).

Once I became satisfied with the fact that my lovely friend is a hipster, and I now know about this big, but not so big 'secret' of hers, I started to ponder... What exactly would I call my style? I can tell you what articles of clothing I do and do not like, but I couldn't tell you the specific name society would give to my fashion sense.

 Deciding it was high time I find out what my style is called, I eagerly googled 'Fashion quiz'. One popped up, so after clicking on it and completing the quiz, it stated I was a tomboy. Looking further into this type of style I very quickly realized... This is not me.

Unsatisfied with this result, I tried again. I put 'What is my fashion style' into google which brought up many more quizzes. After completing a few more, the general census was that my style is 'classic'. Looking further into it, key words like 'Audrey Hepburn' 'flats' and 'cotton blouse' were coming up.

VERY satisfied, I quickly noted that I love most everything about these outfits. This is very me.

   




  I even have this picture of Audrey Hepburn hanging in my bedroom. What a classy lady she was.
