OK, so now it is February and I am taking on something slightly different. Since this project is to keep me involved with my camera as well as boost a positive life outlook, I have decided to make February's theme: "Grace." Now this will likely be difficult, Grace is difficult because I am not just talking about a synonym for elegance or poise. I am taking about finding Grace in our lives, in our friends, in our environment in our relationship with our family with our homes and neighborhoods and world. Often lately, an acquaintance has used the term in ways I never would have thought about and he's right. And recently, I was told a story about a situation that lacked Grace is all aspects. We need to be good to each other, and to our planet and personally I think a step we could all take to get there is to live our lives with more Grace. Grace is lacking everywhere and certainly I am no exception. So this month I am going to use my camera to try to find Grace in everyday, big or small, it is there, we just have to find it, recognize it and appreciate it.
Today's found Grace? Number 3's simple love of his friend (ok and his toys!) We were at a birthday party and his interactions were (by in large) full of Grace, full of appreciation, full of wonder at everything he got to experience. We are talking simple experiences here: cake, different trucks than those at home and jumping on the bed with his buddy. But his full enjoyment and joy in each moment were full of Grace.
