the vast sea never stops amazing me

♥ the slow creeping broken waves, the giant fabric of reflecting lights

♥ the ever-changing color of the water, the quiet yet vehement motion

& people vs waves vs time

This past Thanksgiving I had alot to be grateful and thankful for. I have an amazing support system and people who love me dearly and deeply. I have someone who appreciates me and insists on letting me know how much they care about me on a regular basis. I am reminded that often we don't know what God has planned for us down the road but he knows. When things look like they can't get no worse, trust and believe and let him direct your ways. When you do, you will receive a great blessing. These past few months the blessings have been overflowing. I don't take them for granted. When I moved hindrances and obstacles out of my way, great things began to happen for me. {Random Thought 11.30.15} #FaithOfAMustardSeed #Humble #appreciative

Harry is not too appreciative of clothing, as he is a very dignified cat. This

was one thing he consented to wear. He approved of the color combination. Here

is another view.

I think about all that you do for me when I ask and even when I don't ask.

I think about how thoughtful, kind, and considerate you are; I think about you and I remember even with a rag tied around my head,and no make-up on, you say I look beautiful to you;

I think about how very fortunate I am to have you in my life; Thinking of you makes me smile. {Random Thoughts 7.8.10}

I walk from the Tribune Tower lobby to the elevators and a guy walks out, so I grab the door and hop in. Nobody else is in the elevator, but MY very floor button is already pushed! Floor 14. I exclaimed, "Sweet! Wow!" I MUST have used psychic mind powers to push that button, and I didn't even realize it. Is that dangerous to have this mind ability and not even realize it with your own mind?

Day 151/365 "Rice Noodles"

Another lovely day in the kitchen :) I felt for Chinese but was too lazy to go get it plus I'm broke so I chose the alternate option cooking it myself. It was fun and the end result (eating the food) was rewarding (Y). #RandomThought I love Rice Noodles :D
