Just over a week ago we spent a truly beautiful day touring Fort Jesus and Old Town Mombasa.

I couldn’t have known this is where life would take me. I don’t know what I’ll be doing next week. But, looking at this picture, I feel the warmth of my smile and the joy in my heart.

What a weekend.

I’m forever mesmerized by how beautiful life can be. Not always easy, not often pretty, but together as a whole - breathtaking.

Consider how what is frivolous and what is necessary is in the eye of the beholder :)
Share if it gets you thinking!

Learning to Listen.

Have you heard anything from your body lately that you didn’t want to hear?
How did you react?

Yesterday I went for a walk and listened to Bryan Stevenson on Krista Tippet’s podcast, On Being . Bryan Stevenson is a lawyer, activist, author and so much more and you should definitely check out his work if you are looking to be inspired by intentional living. In one of the exchanges between ho...
