On A Ship. (A Moment)

Miles and miles around–as far as the eye can see–there is nothing but blue and white. I always read in books about the marriage between the sky and the sea, but I never understood how it looked until now, for I cannot differentiate between the two spheres. They kiss on a foggy horizon where both fade into a grayish blue.

(*I had an idea long ago to record moments of my favorite places and activities. I am starting this “series” off solo, but eventually would love to feature other people’s moments as well. I think it is a fun way of seeing things from another person’s unique perspective!)

A letter.

Dear 2013,

I’m not praying that you will be wonderful and I’m not hoping that you will be better than 2012.

I am expecting it.

I am choosing better.

I am choosing wonderful.

There is no other option.

I don’t doubt that trials will come. They may be more tumultuous than ever before – but you know what that means, right? The victory, once it comes, will be all the sweeter and all the more triumphant.

Yes, 2013, come with bells and whistles.

I look forward to living life in you.

Much love,

S
