Day 21: January 21, 2011
If any of you haven't noticed, I have been using some backlogged photographs. The reason for this is I forgot my camera cord in Loudon and I'll be in Murfreesboro/Nashville until Monday. So I am going through pictures and finding something that fits what I am grateful for that day. (until I can take new pictures!)
Today I am grateful for
unconventional pieces of art.

This is a photograph I took this summer while in Charleston, SC. I thought it was appropriate for how I was feeling today, so forgive me for its age. :)
"Scripture tells us that there is evil in the world, and that terrible things happen for reasons that defy human understanding. In the words of Job, “when I looked for light, then came darkness.”
Bad things happen, and we must guard against simple explanations in the aftermath."
-- President Obama
Today I am grateful for the heroism showed by individuals in Tucson, Arizona this weekend.
I am grateful for the survivors of this tragedy, but also sad for those
who were lost.
I am grateful for a country that allows free speech, but sad that
Jared Loughner couldn't use his words instead of bullets.
I am grateful for leaders like our President, Gabrielle Giffords, John Roll, Jan Brewer, and others.
Today I am grateful to be an
American.

Day 1: January 1, 2011
This is the first day of my 365 days of gratefulness project. Basically, for an entire year I have dedicated myself to taking a picture every day of something I am grateful for. I am hoping it will help me see something beautiful in every day I live this year; something everyone needs.

"Months ago I would have told you that life was about doing, about jumping through religious hoops, about impressing other people, and my actions would have told you this is done by buying possessions or keeping a good image or going to church. I don’t believe that anymore. I think we are supposed to stand in deserts and marvel at how the sun rises. I think we are supposed to sleep in meadows and watch stars dart across space and time. I think we are supposed to love our friends and introduce people to the story, to the peaceful, calming why of life. I think life is spirituality." - Donald Miller

Today I am grateful for the rain. Rain washes away the old and brings the new;
the perfect gift for the new year.
