A Year in Pictures

I've decided that I need to be a little more proactive at reflecting on the good fortune in my life. I have so much to be thankful for and so many talents that I need to nurture. I love taking pictures so what better way to get a look at the great things going on around me than to document them in photos. I think it is important for me to journal about the photos too, more of a way for me to reflect and remember rather than boast or bore you!
I hope this works!

Friends
"It's better to light a candle than to curse the darkness."
I read this as our quote of the day at school today and it really spoke to me throughout the day.
It is easy to let little things get to us but so powerful to look beyond the immediate situation and consider the bigger picture.  Situations can be escalated or de-escalated depending on how we react to them.
This quote is actually from Eleanor Roosevelt, not my friend Heather, but it could be.
Heather has really taught me to see the good in people and situations and handle every situation with kindness (and a song).
