i am finding romance in just about every aspect of my life right now. i am unbelievably in love with the first rays of sunshine to hit my face in weeks. i am smitten with the spiral stairs and the general decor of the architecture building every monday/wednesday/friday. i feel ever so satisfied with the tea i have been drinking multiple times daily. and i am truly trying my best to feel the joy in each and every moment of my life. i feel renewed and it's not even spring yet. i hope this lasts because i have come to many realizations over the course of 2010 [already!]. thanks to the fall down the stairs and the inevitability of such accidents. i am okay with my powerlessness and i find other parts of my life to control.
all i know is that i'm finally grateful and appreciative in a way i have been striving toward for so long. there is a certain contentment and ease in my life that makes me ever so joyous for all of the little, seemingly insignficant happenings in my life.
i am grateful for words, feelings, and company. i am finally seeing the beauty in everything. and for what it's worth, i am seeing the elegance in not so pretty places as well.
what does this all mean?? probably nothing to anyone but myself--but there you have it, there lies my contentment.
sweeeter dreams.

what a wonderful outlook on life! and so healthy when it comes to how you handle difficult times (as they will come up sometime). I envy your ability to think this way, sometiems stress gets in the way of life.
Kim.. I think it's beautiful that you stop to look around and take the time to look at the beauty that is present in your everyday life. Due to the recent death of my lovely, loving grandma I find myself thinking the same way you do. I look at the beautiful things in life, the snow, a kind stanger, and wish she was here to talk about it, but in way her passing very things that made me realize like you said'powerless' one should focus on what they can control, and stop analyzing the things I can't. Very nice insight!
I think i speak for everyone in saying your set to go very far in life...good luck in everything you do x
i wanted to thank each and every one of you for your wonderful comments. i truly appreciate that fact that you take time to read my blog. it's been a long journey to become the appreciative and optimistic person that i am and it hasn't always been this way. it can be a struggle, but all it takes is a little reminder sometimes.
the fact that you have taken the time to comment on my blog means a lot to me. i hope to hear more from all of you in the future.
thank you. :)
