la mer : the sea

the great sea has much to offer. 

i have always been inspired from the ocean waves and the vastness of the unknown it holds. 

the adventure it brings, the love it gives, and the renewal it creates.  

many lessons have been learned and reflected upon sitting amongst this beauty of creation. 

so i welcome you to join a new journey of thoughts with me :       la mer   blog

enjoy. create. live. love.

grateful

some words from a good book.. 

"still, what is important is to be grateful today and to give thanks.  I am more and more convinced that gratitude is one of the most sublime of human emotions.  It is an emotion that reaches out far beyond our own self to God, to all creation, to the people who gave us life, love, and care.  It is an emotion in which we experience our dependencies as a gift and realize that in the celebration of our dependencies we become most aware of who we truly are:  a small but precious part of creation and above all of the human family.  On this day we can say: It is good 'just' to be human and it is in our common humanity that we can recognize God's love." 

 .. from the good man..  Henri Nouwen "Gracias: A Latin American Journal"

: some inspiring people & places :

there are many important people & places around, but i wanted to highlight a few. 

top left:  meet lawrence t. w, he is 125 years old... he calls it TDA "triple digit age". lawrence has become a dear friend, he knows everything and anything about sports, frequents the point loma community, and has been known to rap on the streets of ocean beach.  if you do not already know him.. you must meet him.  

i am thankful his friendship.  

top right:  this little gem of a pathway. yes, i live steps away from the sailboats and this trail filled with wild flowers and some rad doggies.  thank you trail for the frequent walks and the peace & beauty it has brought.  

bottom left:  the desert.  there ain't nothing like it & thats for sure.  open wide spaces, catus, rock formations, explorations, and nights of shooting stars.  oh how i love them stars. 

bottom right: mr. eric t. hires.  loves the desert as well and would climb rocks all day if he could.  he tells stories through video & film and inspires me daily.  

LOVE.
