Life at the Speed of Sound

After taking this picture and working with it in Lightroom, I realized that it sums up where I am in my life right now. In transition, blurry, always moving, and hurried. The summer looms before me, yet I know that it will speed by me and soon September will be here. It will still be too warm to even think about going outside, but still things will be changing. As much as I pray that everything will come sooner rather than later...I still feel the twinges of melancholy.

I lay on the couch watching my brother open his birthday presents last night. I wish that I could capture that moment in a little mason jar and carry it with me to my new home so that in the dark winter days I could open it up and relive the warm moments where family is all around me and we are all happy and safe and healthy.

I am thankful for change. I am thankful that God doesn't leave us in our puddles of misery and sin.

So even though right now I'm in constant motion, I feel blessed. It's a good moment.
