Day in the life

Day In The Life is such a beautiful idea. It is the perfect way to capture what your life is. I know the saying for our generation is that older generations told us nothing, but we told them everything. But I'm calling not true. Our days are filled with routine that is so ingrained in us that we forget to record it. It’s like trying to remind yourself to breath every breathe, but you don't have to, you just do it and you think this is insignificant and doesn’t deserve attention. But it does. Every season is different and unique. Our days are beautiful and worth our attention. Our routines are who we are at our core and should be captured and shared.I have a beautiful new routine that is a gift. A gift of years of hard work and hope paying off. A gift of a new, fresh start. A gift of a new life. If you look back at almost exactly one year ago, the difference in these two days are shockingly different. Both beautiful, yet two worlds apart.This is my new, every day.
