"Do not let your adorning be external—the braiding of hair and the putting on of gold jewelry, or the clothing you wear— but let your adorning be the hidden person of the heart with the imperishable beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in God's sight is very precious" 1Peter 3:3-4

"Let us be grateful to people who make us happy, they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom."  -Marcel Proust
So far my blogs have been about me coming in to my own, so to speak and I was thinking about why this is. I am new to blogging so I guess I'm not quite sure what it is all about but I just figure if I am writing what I am thinking then that'll be perfectly fine. I often think throughout the day when something happens that may not be so monumental to anyone else but is to me, "I should blog about this" but then I try to think about if there was a deeper meaning to what I just decided I should blog about. I guess my first two blogs were really about self discovery because sometimes the little things in life remind you who you are and who are striving to be.
I have always thought about my relationship with God as a daily progression and I like to see each new day as an opportunity for positive change and growth. I don't think of myself as oh just an awful person that needs to change, yada yada, but the truth is everyone can always improve any aspect of their life in a positive way. Every day I find that there is something that I could make better in myself whether that be to have a more positive impact on others, to please God, or just for myself, there is always something. I never want to be at a stand still. There are many times in my life when I know that I could have done something better than I did and yet I didn't. I no longer want that to be the case. We all have a choice to either wallow in our own disappointment and self pity or do something about it and I choose to do something.
