Everyday we are bombarded with places to go, people to see, and things to do. We go about our day trying to fit everything we can into what seems like never enough time. Sometimes we forget all of the blessings we have around us. We forget what truly matters in life. We take the smallest blessing for granted. We sometimes get blindsided by struggles and unexpected tragedies that we seem like its all gone to crap. We have a hard time seeing the silver lining in the clouds. It is so hard to look for the silver lining, but if we stay strong and hold onto our faith, we will realized that if God brings us to it, He can bring us through it!
I am hoping that everyone takes the time to stop and reflect on all the good things we have in our lives. I know that it is hard sometimes to think of the good things when we are so inundated with hardships, but God never gives us to much to handle. He knows are strengths and our weakness and knows that whatever he puts in front of us, we are capable of getting through.

Your post speaks so much truth. It is amazing the many hardships that I have encountered with my family and the loss of my best friend 2 years ago. While my heart was in pain, I knew that something positive can always come from tragic situations. God gave me the strength to keep Roberts’s sprit and legacy alive. Many times, the strength that people are looking for is within themselves. We possess the power and the will to convey beauty and strength to the world. Yes, we do need to "breathe" every now and then and recognize the blessings that God had given us and examine them. Are we utilizing them the best way we can and to our fullest potential?
Brooke, you have a beautiful sprit
