Happy Thanksgiving! I am thankful for the miracle of life, especially human life. Creation, beautiful in its own right, is made complete by life. It’s amazing that we have life, personality, uniqueness, self-awareness, etc. It’s quite the experience to see a human life come into being and watch it grow and progress into what we hope will be a great destiny. “…for there is a God, and he hath created all things, both the heavens and the earth, and all things that in them are, both things to act and things to be acted upon.” - 2 Nephi 2:14, Book of Mormon
I'm grateful for the beauty of the earth...of the skies, the ocean, the mountains, all the way down to a simple flower. One of the purposes of this photoblog is to share the beauty around me that I am able to capture. I live in a beautiful place and I'm thankful for it. "For the beauty of the earth, For the beauty of the skies, For the love which from our birth Over and around us lies, For the beauty of each hour Of the day and of the night, Hill and vale, and tree and flow'r, Sun and moon, and stars of light, Lord of all, to thee we raise This our hymn of grateful praise." - For the Beauty of the Earth, Hymn
I am so thankful for each of my beautiful children. They are each unique and wonderful, full of great potential, and some of my best friends. I love them. "…children are an heritage of the Lord…" - Psalms 127:3, Holy Bible
