The Beautiful Moments

My life is not perfect; I have flaws. But it's rather brilliant to know such.

I don't believe we share that enough with each other. We see the success but not the many attempts beforehand, the confidence but not the heart jumping inside from anxiety, the calm but not the storm. 

Yet it's during the storm that we need to know that others have made it through. So keep me in mind when that heart starts pounding, or you just want to eat all the ice cream you can find. You aren't the only one; I've been there too.

And, frankly, it's not going to be a one time deal. But neither are the beautiful moments.

My mother always told me, "Flaws denote authenticity." What a beautiful thought.

The Eye of The Beholder is Beautiful.

There is so much beauty in the world.

I've been surrounded recently by gorgeous floral arrangements, breath-taking locations, and inspirational people.

I've always known that I need to be doing something involving beauty to be satisfied, but when I went to find that, I was lost. Not because I couldn't find it but because I find beauty in almost everything.

So I get stuck.

I finally think that I've separated my dedication to or interest in something--then it shows it's beauty--and I'm hooked again.

Seems frustrating on paper.

It's actually wonderful, this redemption that I continue to encounter. It reminds me that I hold beauty, but more importantly, it helps me practice seeing it in others so I'm ready when those really blurry moments come. 


What have you discovered to be beautiful lately?
