I Wonder March 4. 2010

Shell, originally uploaded by pictureapromise.

Low on ambition and inspiration! I have a basket full of treasures on my coffee table. Most of them are rocks and stone I've collected from some of my travels. This shell is in my basket by I have no idea where it came from! I collected shells once on a beach on Whidby Island WA. What a beautiful island, I would love to return. None of my shells that day were this large. When I look at it I wonder what beach it came from, who first picked it up out of the sand and how many pairs of eyes and hands studied it. I Wonder, about my shell, about tomorrow sometimes, and then I am reminded that I know who holds tomorrow and I know who holds my hand. And I trust him completely!

Blessings~

Happy New Year December 25, 2009

Happy New Year, originally uploaded by picturethepromises.

Christmas is fast fading and will soon be just memories. The moments of our lives come and go quickly. The memories fade, the details can get fuzzy. Sometimes we look back, longing for what has been. Sometimes we look forward waiting for what is to come. I want to stop and immerse myself in the moment, the here and now. I want the memories of the past to be sharp because I was in them. I want whatever the future holds to entice and inspire me, so that when the future comes, I am delighted by the here and now.
Remember yesterday, be present in the present and wait with anticipation for tomorrow.
