Frozen


During this past week, my town was hit by a unforeseen wonderland. I believe it was a gift from God to remember His beauty and creation. Sunday morning, I walked out my dorm into a winter's dream. I knew there was a city behind the fog. I knew there was homework and tasks waiting for me in my room, but on that morning began to roam the field that looked like heaven. The picture above shows what I saw on that morning. I added the poem by Robert Frost. ( I realize that I repeated the poem over again, but I think it adds to it. teehee.)  I believe it helped explain my feeling of being tired of the daily routines or the everlasting "job-stopper". It shows the appreciation of stopping to smell the roses.  So, that morning I stopped to taste the snow.










Stay focused on the important things in life, and take time to enjoy them.


With love,
Jessica

Something that touched me today.

2/4/14

This video was posted on Facebook and it was very moving. So I am linking it below and take a moment and watch.

This campaign has been devised for the International Day of Persons with Disabilities by Pro Infirmis, an organization for the disabled. It is entitled "Because who is perfect? Get closer.", this was designed to provoke reflection on the acceptance of people with disabilities. Director Alain Gsponer has captured the campaign as a short film. It is a beautiful representation of how we are all the children of God and that each one of us has flaws. We are to love our neighbors like ourselves. Please take sometime today to reflect on how you view those who have disabilities. Just because they look different doesn't mean they are lesser people.  Genesis 1: 27 "So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them." No one is perfect but we are all made in the image of God.


XOXO,
