Beautiful Day

There is beauty in each day.  Don't miss it.  And there's beauty in so many things.  Beauty isn't confined to pretty flowers or scenic views.  Beauty can be and is found in that which on the surface might appear "ugly".  While walking through an East African slum a year and a half ago I saw with my eyes the ugliness of the slum but my heart saw the beauty of the people living in that slum as they carved out meaningful lives for themselves in the midst of the ugly.  Beauty does arise from ashes.

The End of Affirmation 365

I've been thinking about it for over a month. Usually, when I'm in it I'm engaged. But this time? I started it indifferent and I've felt indifferent all along. I should have never started. Hindsight is 20/20 they say and they aren't wrong. So when I opened my eyes this morning it was clear. It's time. Time to quit this 365. This is the first 365 that I haven't posted several of the days, the first 365 that I wasn't super excited about, the first 365 that I've quit. I've changed my social media presence and interactions the past year so this is also the first 365 that hardly anyone has been interested in. Is it the topic or my decision to not be as accessible on social media? Or is it some other reason altogether? Well, regardless...I'm throwing in the towel on this one. I can't say if I'll ever do another 365 again. Time will tell and I will know if and when it's time.
