differences

it is what's making us great together. :-)


One of the best things I've learned is that God does not bring people into my life so I can make them just like me. God wants us to be different. He's given us different personalities, different strengths, different hobbies and different looks. He's made us all different so we can sharpen one another and cause each other to rise up higher in life.

If you're going to be happy and enjoy your relationships, you've got to learn how to appreciate the differences and learn from the people in your life. If you don't focus on the right things, you'll end up allowing the little irritations to cause you to become resentful. Remember, nobody is perfect. If you're going to grow, you've got to be willing to overlook some things. Our assignment is not to fix people. Our assignment is to love people. Our assignment is to sharpen one another so we can move forward in the good plan God has prepared.

i love how real the joy you'll see in a child's eye for simple things you give or show them...

it delights me to get a happy reaction even for something as simple as taking his photo and showing it to him after. :-) i get the same reaction for some adults i know.... but there's just a few of them who's like that.... i wish everyone will remember their inner child's eye. :-)

tilt-shift shortcut! :-)

tilt-shitf photography: Tilt-Shift miniature faking is a creative technique whereby a photograph of a life-size location or object is manipulated to give an optical illusion of a photograph of a miniature scale model.


you can edit photos to have the tilt-shift effect through Photoshop... but here's a quick way to do it... just go to this link!!! :-)

Tilt-Shift Maker

the lost art of solitude

 

solitude, in these days of ultra-connectedness as much as ever, is an absolute necessity!

 

 

Just a few of the benefits from solitude (taken from this link: Zenhabits):

• time for thought
• in being alone, we get to know ourselves
• we face our demons, and deal with them
• space to create
• space to unwind, and find peace
• time to reflect on what we’ve done, and learn from it
• isolation from the influences of other helps us to find our own voice
• quiet helps us to appreciate the smaller things that get lost in the roar
