a happy sunny blog

So now that we are officially into Spring, and (hopefully) have had the last winter snow of the year I figure it is time to write a happy sunny blog. Because the days really have been happy and sunny lately. Almost to perfection and I love it. Its not too hot yet but its definitely not bitter cold anymore. There are flowers blooming and birds singing everywhere.

I guess I've sortof just realized that this will be my last Spring/Summer in the valley for two years or so and I'm learning to try and enjoy it as much as possible. I think I should go on a hike soon, I just dont know where yet? Hopefully I will be blessed enough to go on a mission somewhere that is just as spactacular as this place is.

You know we as kids like to complain a lot about this place and how boring it can be and how plain it is but the longer I stay here the more I appreciate just how nice it is here. It is a wonderful place and I think it will always feel like home to me and possibly I may just stay here forever.

I always wonder to myself how I got to be so lucky to be put into such a wonderful life. How did I ever get lucky enough to be born in the most free land in the world, in a time where new technology is making life so exciting and much easier than it used to be? How did I ever get lucky enough to be born and raised with the knowledge that I have, and the ability to orchestrate my own life how I see fit? And how can I ever prove that all these blessing that have just been handed to me are justified, and how can I ever prove that I really do deserve all that I have ever had? And how can I ever take full advantage of all the many oppurtunities that come my way? And how will I ever be able to keep as many doors of possibility open to me as I walk my path of life?

I've felt like that a lot lately, that I've only just begun to appreciate how fantastic it is to live here. And I liked that you said "doors of possibility" because that's basically the title of my final photo project.
