Life is crazy. Life is cool. It's usually a swirling mass of dark matter rarely seen, but always felt. Whether the feeling is good, bad, or indifferent - it exists. There is no explanation of why we feel, or why we have emotion. But we have to trust it, accept it, and move forward.
I firmly believe that everything happens for a reason. Most people I have talked to also feel that way. I don't care what you want to call it, but I will call it faith. Faith in yourself, faith in others, and faith in the unknown. Most times we can't control things. They are beyond our reach. Often I find myself struggling with changing situations that I can't control. The knowledge to know the difference between what I can and cannot control is the hurdle we all must overcome. It comes back to faith and trusting yourself.
Where are we going, where do we want to be, and what do we need to do to get there? Herein lies faith, hard work, and determination. A constant quest to find internal peace. In the end, we will all find that place of glory.
To all a great weekend,
Britt

I imagine that from one moment to the next our peace lies within the company we are standing with.
I can not imagine better company than with those I see everyday and I love the fact that my family is so much more than what I thought it was from the experiences we have together... that includes you, britt... the am crew. the long-distancers. and 'home'.
What makes our lives worth living.. isn't what I make plans for but for what plan I have at this moment. To live for this day, this hour, this minute... and from there our goals become what we make of them.
