I was feeling a little bit of cabin fever today, and so I went on a walk. Naturally. To avoid my cabin. Get rid of my fever. ;) I was walking down the little quaint road out of my neighborhood, and something struck me. Like hard. Why is it that nature that has been untouched by us is so beautiful, raw, and perfect? Why is it that families like to take their pictures outside? Why is it that pictures outside with people in them are the best kind of pictures? I think I figured it out. At least a little. Untouched nature is God's space. It's His creation and the details that He understands and we don't. It's His beauty and a sign of love for us--something for us to enjoy and appreciate. God creates beauty and peace, right? That's where the whole people in the pictures comes in--family. It's beautiful. It's from God. God creates beautiful things for us. Why? Why do we deserve endless fields of tall grass and wildflowers and loving people in our lives who hug us while we push them away? Truth is, we don't. None of us have lived perfect enough lives to deserve any of it. I guess the only way to give back is to appreciate it and treasure it. Always carry your glass half full, and notice all of the amazing things around you. :) Life truly is beautiful.
