The power of being.
That’s what I am taught in the quiet. The profound joy of being a person. Of discovering new things. Of stepping outside this self-made box. Of not needing to be an expert or a hero to do brave things. And letting beautiful moments come and go without fanfare. On Tuesday, I shared the goodness of keeping a track record on social media and I stand by that. But equally important is letting life be life, taking it in just as it is, soaking it up, and letting it pass.
The power of being is realizing big life isn’t tied to the big successes, the big moments, the big dreams and goals. Life just is. . .and the grandness of it is in the gift. How gentle and golden these small moments are. . . lacking in fanfare yet holding the intentionally of God’s blessings, His big delight for us. . .for our lives.
Welcome to my cottage garden in the foothills of California! I’m a poet, gardener, and sunflower enthusiast. Here you’ll find personal prose + poetry celebrating the beauty of a little life, the inspirational and dynamic turn of seasons both in creation and in soul, and the triumphant hope of Christ. If you’re looking for somewhere quiet, this is just the place for you.♥️
