On beauty in the details.

It is a beauty in the details kind of day, because I needed to find it somewhere.











I was alone in my apartment for a good majority of the day.
I was supposed to pack for my trip to the Dominican Republic in three days.
I was supposed to go to a Good Friday service.

Instead I took a day off from everything.

I played with my new lens and ate baked goods and did a lot of thinking.
It wasn't nice enough to spend it outside.

So now I am quieting my heart to listen to what the Lord has for me in the DR.
I need a break from my regular.
I'm ready to feel something bigger than myself again.
I have been craving to go somewhere, anywhere.

So, today, I found beauty in the details, in the little things.
I found it in the light shining through the blinds, which I later opened.
I found it in the spices on a spice rack.
I found it.

I am thankful for this weekend, and the truth that comes with it.
I am thankful for the rest that i have been blessed with, and the burden that was carried for me.
So I think it is ok to find beauty in the little things, because I don't deserve them.
