Perfect

With school starting up, I have been quite busy. However, I did find time to go take some pictures with my lovely friend Kate. Her mom is quite the photographer so it was fun to drive around with her and find different places to shoot. I absolutely love to add photos to my collection. Practice may make perfect, but each photograph is perfect in its on way.

I hope to have a post or two up in a few days about my first days of class.

Best wishes,

Bubbles

There are not many things that cannot be fixed with a bubble bath. After a grueling practice this morning, I headed right to the tub, pushed play on my calming music playlist, and sunk beneath the bubbles.

Six more days of summer is all I have left. Back to school festivities start this coming Monday so this is it. It is safe to say I am little let down by this summer. Yes, I took some amazing trips and had quite a lot of fun, however I did not really accomplish all I hoped to. I had a long set of goals and things to get done that did not get finished. 

With that said, I strongly believe that God has perfect timing. Everything will happen when it is supposed to. This summer may have not been the most productive summer ever, but I did get quite a few things done. I found my passion for blogging, I furthered my photography portfolio, I made some new friends, and I found quite a bit of peace within myself. 

"Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the Lord!" Psalm 27:14

"For there is a time and a way for everything, although man's trouble lies heavy on him." Ecclesiastes 8:6

Patience, patience, and more patience is what I need to remember even when I wish things would just hurry up. I must stay strong and have faith in the Lord for He know my path.

Thank you Lord for everything you do in my life and the lives of those around me.

Best wishes,
Grace

Change

Good morning my loves and happy Sunday!

This past week has been quite a busy one. While still handling volleyball, I tackled back to school shopping, entertaining my cousin who was in town, and helping my friends get ready for their first day of school. It was quite a hectic week.

Although I seemed to have a lot of things on my plate, I still managed to procrastinate and have some down time. One thing I have recently come to love is youtube. I love watching youtuber's videos, vlogs, and challenges.

With technology becoming such a common thing in this modern world, these youtuber's lives have changed. These people have become famous simply over the internet. Millions of people watch their videos because of their humor, honesty, and willingness to do anything for the camera. These young people are becoming the face of our generation.

Many of my favorite youtubers have been talking about change. Since their lives blew up so quickly, their surroundings have changed. They went from posting videos from their bedrooms for fun to attending events, being signed to labels, and beginning making thousands of dollars all before the hit their twenties.

This is what Nash Grier, a youtuber and viner, said in his last video about change.

"A lot of people say 'you've changed' like it's a bad thing. Change is good, at least that's what I believe. I mean how does one grow and learn and experience without change? I personally have had a lot of changes in my life recently. But they wouldn't have happened unless I allowed them to. They wouldn't have happened unless I lived in the moment."

I found this so true and so full of wisdom. Yes, it may be silly that I am quoting a internet sensation, but I personally believe this is so applicable to anyone's life.

With school around the corner, I have the opportunity to change. I have the chance to be completely myself. I have the chance to make this a good year, one that I can look back on and say I really was myself.

Happy Sunday loves, rejoice in the Lord and have a day of relaxing before the busy week starts up again.

Best wishes,
Grace
