Between blogs, podcasts, tv shows, conversations, and books, I take in lots of information every day. As I take it in and process through it, I am almost always contemplating what I want to share with you! Here are a few of the things I'm loving right now... and a few thoughts as well!
All in Thoughts
I talk a lot about loving the small things, fresh flowers, a cup of tea, a good book, a mental snapshot of a lovely evening with my husband that I want to treasure forever. In the same way that small moments fuel living, big dreams, and wide smiles, small changes can have a significant impact on every day living. I call these small changes and fine tunings "tweaks."
Have you ever experienced a perfect synchronization of randomness? We tend to refer to these moments with comment like "It's such a small world!" or "Well isn't that a coincidence!". My favorite coincidental moments are with books.
I don't usually take significant chunks of down time, usually I plow right through until I crash. Lately, however, there has been a recurring instruction in my time in the Word, in sermons, and in books: REST. SABBATH. Allow yourself to be restored.
Because of my adoration for the dainty, I love artistic letters that are filled with scrolls, wisps, and elaborate detail. I love seeing the creative world trending toward beautiful lettering.
At the end of one year and the beginning of the next, I try to set aside some time to reflect on the year past and to dream for the year to come. I definitely set goals. Except this year, I decided to call them aims.
